    2016 has been declared by tech experts as the year of virtual reality. Will this have an impact on training, teaching and education? Of course it will – but not straight away. I think for training it will have a bigger impact on assessment with the trainers ability to assess an individual from a distance…

    From my perspective not a great deal has changed on the education front this year. We of course have some weird things happening in NSW as education and training continues to take a beating while proclaiming that it is improving.
