What’s happening?
From 2021 to 2024, Belgium-FL is rolling out a multi-year initiative to bring XR tools and skills into every secondary VET school.
Goals of the plan:
Provide XR hardware & software with easy access
Train and upskill teaching staff in XR use
Build a strong foundation of XR knowledge across Flemish schools
Develop innovative, reusable XR content for all provinces
Four key actions drive the plan:
– Practice-oriented research to validate impact
– XR lending service for hardware + support
– Sustainable software projects aligned with education
– XR Academy & Learning Network for teacher training
This is more than digital transformation—it’s a system-wide investment in the future of skills, learning, and innovation. ![]()
