The Challenge
Digitizing Learning Programs

Our Solution
The combination of theory and practice allows newly acquired knowledge to be memorized faster, more sustainably and to be used later in everyday working life. Playful experimenting, in particular, stimulates attention, boosts motivation, and increases learning success. These elements form the basis for professional success.
With Virtual Reality, BNW relies on interactive learning content to give its participants in a wide range of training courses the best possible preparation for the demands of the professional world.

Customized VR Modules
Thanks to 3spin Learning's user-friendly authoring platform, BNW was able to develop customized VR modules for training courses such as office management or electrics, thus creating an innovative learning environment.
In these modules, participants learn, for example, how to lay cables, how to deal with short circuits and how to obtain important information on occupational safety. In the more advanced module, they are presented with the challenge of virtually getting a drive motor to run.
The Success
Increased Learning Efficiency
VR learning has improved the quality of the vocational training programs offered by BNW. Feedback from participants and teaching staff alike has been positive and shows that he BNW is on the right track with its digital strategy. In addition, BNW stands out from its competitors and presents itself as an innovative and forward-looking educational organization.
Widening The Range Of Educational Programs
BNW's next steps are now to further expand learning with VR in its educational programs, to create more learning scenarios, and to work with 3spin Learning on further development, such as the integration of AI as a learning aid. BNW appreciates the excellent collaboration with the 3spin Learning team, particularly with regard to the authoring tool, project management, and support.


What we love about VR is the wow effect, but especially the successful and sustainable learning that it offers. Our participants engage their minds and bodies and have a genuine learning experience.
