Hazard Identification
Whether we like it or not, hazards are present in all workplaces, and failure to address them can lead to injuries, loss of productivity and increased business costs. As such, a crucial part of any occupational health and safety program involves the successful identification and evaluation of hazards and the level of risk they present. Next World’s VR Hazard Identification training is designed to vastly improve the awareness of employees and enable them to assess whether a situation is dangerous. Trainees will learn about the Hierarchy of Controls and Risk Assessment Matrix, and understand how to implement each as they explore an immersive environment with hazards occurring around them.

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.
