What people say about Bodyswaps
"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."
Anne Scrimshaw
Fab Lab Manager, Sandwell College
South Yorkshire Primary Care Workforce & Training Hub
"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

"I can highly recommend it as a fantastic learning tool! I was very impressed with the quality of the information delivered, the level of interactivity and variety of teaching methods."
Delia Whitworth
Health and Social Care Lecturer, City of Wolverhampton College
Sandwell College
"Research has repeatedly shown that immersive technologies are a great tool for education, and we are noting this first-hand in the students’ confidence and abilities in public speaking and interview preparation."
Hans Moolman
Research Fellow Specialising in AR/VR, Munster Technological University%20logo.svg)
"Bodyswaps has revolutionised the way in which we can support University of Liverpool students using virtual reality and digital technologies."
Matt Jones
Career Consultant, University of Liverpool
"It's inspiring to see how everyone [...] has embraced this innovative VR platform, fostering an environment where students gain confidence at their own pace, aligning perfectly with their employability and future career goals."
Professor Vish Maheshwari
Associate Dean Academic, University of Salford
"When I teach interview skills now I won’t do it without Bodyswaps. I think that says it all right there."
Cindy Leggott
Regina Work Preparation Center
"In 2021, the Nursing and Midwifery Council said that we were allowed to use simulation [for some of the required 2,300 placement hours for nursing students]. Bodyswaps became an integral part of our approach, ensuring our students achieved their clinical hours while mastering critical skills in a simulated environment."
Lucy Mottram
Principal Lecturer in Adult Nursing, Sheffield Hallam University
"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
"Another area that we’ve found [Bodyswaps] really effective for is newcomers to Canada, people for whom English isn’t their first language. It seems to give them a better understanding of what an interview looks like here versus their home country. Some of the differences as well as some of the nuances of the English language."
Eric Milos
Virtual Reality Marketer, Regina Work Preparation Center
"Students really appreciated the use of this type of simulation for communication skills training because of the psychological safety it offered them, regardless of the device they chose to use."
Elizabeth Stone
Assistant Dean & Associate Professor, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
"One student, who’d never done VR before, was so happy with the immediacy of the learnings from Bodyswaps that they felt it was probably one of the most valuable things they’d done as a first year."
Pauline McKeever
Associate Head Global Engagement and Educational Partnerships
"It very quickly became apparent that the ability to practise conversations - whether they're clinical conversations or general communication skills, in a safe space with no one else listening and no one paying attention where, if you made a mistake, you hit reset and you could start again - was amazing and it really opened people's eyes up to that."
Liz Leggott
Project Manager, South Yorkshire Primary Care Workforce & Training Hub
"[Bodyswaps’] AI is very realistic, the script is very high quality, and I actually feel like I'm there. I feel like I gained lots of experience, but also it feels very safe that it's just between me and the AI."
Javidul Islam
Physician Associate Preceptorship Lead & Educator, South Yorkshire Primary Care Workforce & Training Hub
"[Bodyswaps’ anti-racism modules are] the perfect resource to support course content or to use as an assignment after sessions on Anti-Racism and Anti-Oppression. It provided my students opportunities to reflect on their own biases, and they shared that they felt more confident to talk about race and to challenge biases and microaggression."
Gail Howard
Professor/Coordinator, George Brown College
"Bodyswaps will help give the folks we work with a chance to have an emotional connection with the skills being taught. The connection will ultimately instil the behaviours and habits necessary to be successful in the workplace."
Kristin Rotas
Program Manager, Viability
"Bodyswaps has undergone extensive, independent evaluation, demonstrating its effectiveness in developing essential workplace skills. The platform’s evidence-based approach and measurable impact set a new benchmark for immersive learning."
