Hazmat Virtual is grant-funded and provided at no cost to fire departments, emergency response organizations, fire science programs, community colleges, fire academies, and hazmat teams due to a grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation—VR hardware equipment and shipping included.
How VR Training Works
- Choose a week that you want to start training.
- We generally follow up by email to arrange shipping. Please use the email that reaches you! Please check your SPAM filter email inbox if you don’t see your reservation request.
- We’ll ship you four VR headsets that your team can use for instructor-led or self-paced learning.*
- Teach as many modules as you’d like—they are unlimited!
- On the agreed date, ship the headsets back in a postage-paid box.
- We’ll send you a training report so you can assign PDHs.
* Equipment package deliveries will only be released after a signature is received from a recipient upon delivery at scheduled location.
