“I have been waiting for VR to transform the way we educate people for the last 15 years – finally Bodyswaps has produced what I have been waiting for. I can’t wait to see what the next 15 years will bring!”
Anne Scrimshaw, Fab Lab Manager, Sandwell College "Bodyswaps is a great way to look at the impact of immersive learning within the employability space. Through the world of virtual reality, students have been able to enhance their confidence and try a unique tech-enhanced approach to employability."
Emma Clarke, Communications & Engagement Manager, University of Liverpool "Bodyswaps opened our eyes to what VR can bring to interview training. This is a game-changer.”
Christel Babinet, Career Coach, HEC Paris "A perfect example of how you can create technology-enhanced learning experiences that add pedagogical value. This would be very difficult to simulate with traditional educational methods. ”
Tom Wambeke, Chief Learning Innovation, ICTILO, International Labour Organisation “Bodyswaps has been helping SAGE to think through the possibilities of VR for the university market and to push us to think creatively about how to harness the emotional and experiential potential of VR”
Katie Metzler, Head of Methods Innovation, SAGE Publishing "Bodyswaps is an application that allows learners to practice skills that are difficult to replicate in a traditional learning environment. The immersive experience is risk-free, accessible, engaging, and encourages learners to reflect on their own understanding of themselves. It has great potential as an essential learning tool now and in the future."
Michael Avis, Faculty Facilitator & Teaching Technology Coach, George Brown College "Bodyswaps' highly immersive experience is exactly what we need for positive behavioural change at scale by providing a safe space for practicing difficult conversations."
Atish Gonsalves, Global Innovation Director, Humanitarian Leadership Academy "Bodyswaps will help give the folks we work with a chance to have an emotional connection with the skills being taught. This connection will ultimately instill the behaviours and habits necessary to be successful in the workplace."
Kristin Rotas, Program Manager, Viability "Bodyswaps has a unique way of creating self-awareness amongst learners and letting them truly practise their skills in a realistic context. This perfectly fits with SNCF's vision of pioneering the use of immersive learning to bring positive change at a very large scale."
Frank Doute, Manager FAB AR VR, SNCF "Preparing for interviews can be challenging but VR provides an ideal 'safe space' to hone and perfect these essential skills. We’ll soon wonder how we trained for interviews before Bodyswaps."

Charlene Dustan, Co-chair of George Brown College's Anti-Racism Equity Advisory Board "Bodyswaps Rocks!"
Rory Meredith, Coleg y Cymoedd "Bodyswaps provided a fit-for-purpose solution to exercise inclusive leadership skills. It is a useful tool to prepare senior first responders for relief missions of the Union Civil Protection Mechanism."
