“ “VVRT provides consistent, high-quality feedback that allows them to walk into their clinical settings with confidence and clarity— something that can impact their match success and long-term effectiveness as physicians.”

Beyond education, the project represents the heart of VCOM’s research mission: students, faculty, and staff working side-by-side to solve real-world problems. As a standalone application, VVRT already delivers powerful feedback—but future plans include integration with VCOM’s existing Virtual Learning Management System (VLMS), enabling large-scale pattern recognition and trend analysis that could support everything from quality assurance to early diagnosis tracking. As the team at VCOM-Virginia’s Center for Simulation and Technology continues to refine the system, their hope is that what began as a classroom innovation will ultimately shape broader applications in clinical practice, health education, and beyond.
