Introduction
Training employees is an integral part of any business, as it helps them learn the skills and information
they need to be more productive and effective.
Unfortunately, many businesses struggle with this process, and it’s easy to see why.
Traditional training methods and tools are often dull and outdated, making them ineffective in helping
employees retain the information.
With the growing availability of new technologies such as virtual and augmented reality, businesses can
now find new ways to effectively train their employees in ways that are engaging, interactive, affordable,
and accessible anytime from anywhere.
In this blog post, we'll explore AR training, why it matters for your business, how you can use it in your
organization, and much more.
What is Augmented Reality for Training?
Augmented reality (AR) is a live, mixed reality experience that integrates computer-generated imagery
with the user’s real-life environment.
The technology enhances the user's experience with new content, information, and visual cues that
appear superimposed over the natural world around them.
Augmented reality is taking a user's experience and adding to it with information, graphics, images, and
more – all in the real world.
That’s opposed to a virtual reality experience, which completely immerses users in an entirely new, virtual
environment. AR is what allows you to interact with virtual elements in your real-life environment.
To understand AR for training, let’s start by exploring how it works.
Why is AR Training Important?
You're not alone if you're wondering why you should care about AR for training.
The truth is that many businesses don't know how to implement this powerful new training tool
effectively. It is often due to a lack of knowledge about AR and how it works.
When done right, AR for training is a truly transformative experience for employees. It can help them
better retain the information they need to do their job and also help them grow their skills and
knowledge base.
Here's why AR training is essential.
Engaging: AR is an engaging technology.
It allows businesses to take their training to a new level by adding more visual, auditory, and kinesthetic
elements to the process. It's a way of taking tried and true training methods and tools and making them
more exciting and engaging.
- Interactive: AR training is also interactive.
It means it's a great way to encourage employees to ask questions, clarify information, and more
actively engage with the material they're learning.
-Affordable: AR training saves cost.
Because of the rising popularity of AR, it's now much more affordable. It means businesses can easily
find ways to implement AR for training and scale it within their organization without breaking the bank.
- Flexible
AR training is also flexible in that businesses can do it on various devices and platforms. It means
employees can actively engage with AR training on the device that's most convenient for them –
whether on the job or from home.
How to use AR for Practical Training
It’s important to remember that AR is not a one-size-fits-all solution.
To effectively use it within your organization, you'll need to determine the best way to deploy it.
There are a few different ways to go about this:
 Using AR on a mobile device: One of the most convenient ways to use AR for training is to download
an AR app for your employees' mobile devices.
 Using AR on a computer or tablet: You can also use a computer with an AR-enabled browser or an
AR-enabled tablet to deliver your training.
 Integrating AR into your existing eLearning platform: If you already have an eLearning platform, you
can incorporate AR into it and use it to enhance your existing training materials.
Conclusion
AR is an important new technology that can help businesses train employees to be more effective,
productive, and knowledgeable.
Businesses can use AR in many ways depending on their employees' devices.
Professionals and businesses can use AR to enhance existing training materials by making them
more engaging and interactive. When done right, AR training can transform the employee training
experience and make it more effective.
