FAQ

How is the fire drill conducted at Real Training?

→

Real Training conducts realistic fire drills for businesses using VR, making the training safe, engaging, and effective. Participants get to practice correct extinguishing techniques, experience realistic scenarios, and focus on personal safety.

The use of VR allows the drill to be conducted directly at the workplace without smoke, flames, or disruption to operations; this ensures a high learning effect within a safe environment. If you require more formal training in addition to the drill, the exercise can be combined with our Fire Safety Course with VR for the workplace.

What do you learn during the fire drill?

→

Participants will learn:

Practical use of fire extinguishers and correct extinguishing techniques.
How to detect and react to smoke and fire hazards.
How to ensure personal safety in a real-life situation.

VR provides a lifelike experience that makes it easier to remember exactly what to do when it truly matters.

Can the fire drill be conducted without smoke?

→

Yes. VR drills provide a realistic fire experience without physical smoke or flames. This is particularly suitable for employees with allergies or asthma, and for businesses that want minimal impact on operations. The solution also makes it possible to train many people in a short amount of time—often up to 60 people in a single day.

How often should a company have a fire drill?

→

At least once a year, or more frequently if the HSE risk assessment dictates it. Regular drills ensure that employees know how to react quickly and correctly, and that routines become second nature when an emergency arises.

What do you learn in a fire safety course?

Is a fire safety course mandatory by law?

How often must a fire safety course be taken?

→

Fire safety courses should be taken at least every 1 to 2 years, depending on the risk level and HSE requirements of the business. Regular training ensures that knowledge is maintained and that employees feel confident in what to do in the event of a fire.

What are the benefits of using VR in fire drills?

→

VR provides realistic simulation, higher engagement, no smoke or flames, minimal downtime, and excellent learning outcomes. It lowers the barrier to conducting drills while ensuring the training remains practically relevant.

Are the fire drill and fire safety course safe for all employees?

→

Yes. VR and eco-friendly solutions make the exercises safe for everyone, including employees with allergies or health limitations. Participants train without exposure to smoke, heat, or chemicals, yet still benefit from realistic scenarios and professional guidance.
