Choose from Two Days of VR Immersion
The VR for Learning Summit is a two-day, hands-on learning experience exploring both the strategy and development of virtual reality solutions. You can attend either day on its own, or fully immerse yourself by attending both days.
Registration to either day of the VR for Learning Summit also includes access to the VR Playground, being held on the evening of Monday, October 24. The playground is an informal showcase of real-world VR training solutions that you can explore and experience for yourself while learning from the people that built them.
