In a VjobReady session the job seeker works through a series of job duties in a simulated work environment with the support and guidance of their employment practitioner or job coach. The coach becomes the VR training facilitator who can control features and functions in the session to support the learning style and learning curve of the job seeker. The job seeker works through three performance levels beginning with an errorless learning level followed by increasingly more complex tasks and more stressful job demands. The VR facility can focus sessions on one task or component if an individual requires additional practice to build skill or confidence. Telemetry data, automatically captured during each session, helps to confirm the job seeker’s progress and skills development. Progress has been observed in initial sessions; individuals typically progress through the 3 learning levels in just 3 VR sessions.
