With changing threats and rapid technological progress, society is facing significant changes and challenges. Ensuring that people have the skills and capabilities to meet these challenges is key. One ‘tool’ for this could be the use of virtual reality (VR). The VR research community is becoming increasingly active in the search for solutions. In this article, we have tried to summarize the concepts related to VR education and training, followed by the challenges of using VR technology and the solutions already implemented through examples from the US, France and China. We then concluded the article by outlining possible future concepts that will need to be developed to implement VR training, with a particular focus on the issues of military training.
