Overview
Immersive training places people into realistic scenarios to practice skills in a safe environment. Rather than telling people what to do, it lets them try, reflect, and improve — making learning memorable and applicable.
Core principles
Active learning: learn by doing, not just listening
Psychological safety: fail safely and try again
Immediate feedback: debrief soon after action
Why it works
When people experience a challenge, make decisions and see the outcomes, they retain more and transfer those lessons to real work faster. The combination of practice and structured debrief is key.
