Fire Extinguisher Skills
Fire extinguishers are an important safety feature in any workplace, but they are only effective if employees know how to properly use them in case of a fire emergency. In fact, the National Fire Protection Association states that having properly trained employees can mean the difference between a small incident and a devastating fire. Next World’s VR Fire Extinguisher Skills provides an immersive and interactive course to teach employees the proper methods for handling and using fire extinguishers effectively. Trainees will learn to identify different types of extinguishers, how to correctly activate them, and practice using them on different classes of fire.

Why Choose Immersive Learning?
Our VR training courses are built from the ground up to offer the most immersive training experience possible. Because of this deep user immersion, VR training has been proven to result in much higher retention rates – up to 80% one year after training, compared to just 20% from traditional training methods.
Immersive learning helps build confidence in trainees abilities and prepares them for real-world situations by allowing them to practice and test their skills in challenging scenarios. A recent PwC study found VR training increased the confidence of participants by 275%.
In addition to providing an immersive and engaging training environment, VR allows trainees to experience the consequences of poor safety while they train and practice their skills in high danger scenarios without any of the normal risks or costs.
