Virtual reality training uses 360° scenarios to place learners inside realistic situations so they can practise relevant skills with real people in a safe environment. Participants wear a VR headset or tablet to move through everyday care situations, make decisions and learn by applying skills in context.

Aged care and disability work is full of discernment decisions. Support staff are constantly balancing safety, dignity and individual choice, often under pressure.

VR training offers an environment that reflects that. It gives workers the chance to practise difficult decisions before they’re accountable for them in real life, and gives providers confidence that the learning will stick.

It puts learners inside a context where judgement, empathy and skill are required. They’re prompted to make calls in the moment and then experience the consequences of those choices in real time.

Because the modules are repeatable and work through branched narratives, learners can practice managing the same situation a number of times. That way, they see how small changes in approach, timing and communication elicit different emotional responses and can significantly shift the outcome.

Seeing these real emotional responses, in a controlled environment, creates a safe yet meaningful and memorable experience for the learner, which in turn increases knowledge retention.

A scenario looks and feels like a real care setting. The learner is placed inside a 360° environment with real people, then guided through a situation that requires a response. At key decision points, they choose what to do next and the scenario branches based on their choice.

Traditional aged care training often relies on theory, 2D videos or role play, which can be hard to standardise and uncomfortable for learners.

Sacadi VR gives every learner the same high-quality scenario, the same decision points and the same learning outcomes, without needing an actor or a trainer for every small group or a perfect classroom setup.

It’s designed to support accredited delivery, so organisations can use it as a consistent, accessible training and assessment tool alongside existing programs.

Yes. It’s designed to help providers build and demonstrate workforce capability in line with the more person-centred focus introduced under the 2024 Aged Care Act.

Sacadi VR integrates into structured training and assessment programs and was developed off the back of an accredited deployment with registered training organisation, Limestone Coast Training. So it’s designed for real-world use in regulated environments.
