Thames valley air ambulance
Thames Valley Air Ambulance’s integration of VR headsets into aviation ground training has been a game-changer for our crew development. The immersive technology allows trainees to experience complex scenarios in a controlled, repeatable environment, enhancing both confidence and competence. From cockpit familiarisation to emergency response drills, VR has enabled us to simulate high-pressure situations with remarkable realism—without the logistical constraints of traditional training. It’s particularly effective for reinforcing decision-making and procedural memory, giving our teams a safe space to practice and refine their skills.
Beyond the technical benefits, VR has also transformed the way we engage with training. The interactive nature of the headsets fosters deeper concentration and retention, and the flexibility of the system means we can tailor sessions to individual learning needs. Feedback from our crews has been overwhelmingly positive—they appreciate the hands-on experience and the ability to revisit scenarios as needed. As an organisation committed to innovation and excellence in patient care, adopting VR has strengthened our operational readiness and reaffirmed our commitment to pioneering training solutions.

defence instructional designer
As a training analyst, developer, and course designer, I have delivered multiple DSAT-compliant aircrew flight training courses and supporting materials for international Security and Defence clients. Recently, I was tasked with creating a six-month DSAT-compliant aircrew course using the MAXRES Architect and Construct toolset.
My experience with MAXRES Construct has been exceptional. The platform enabled me to focus on refining content and achieving a higher-quality output within a tight timeframe, rather than spending significant effort on collating and managing complex training datasets just to build a basic course framework.
MAXRES allowed me to tailor the generated output to align seamlessly with existing course formats, styles, and delivery methods. After initial setup, I observed an immediate impact—development and lesson creation time was reduced by over 40%, while maintaining a very high standard of quality.
The platform’s capabilities were transformative. I could track and apply universal changes, leverage AI to produce concise text for varied learner needs, integrate information from multiple referenced publications, and even uncover new teaching points that were missed during the original Training Needs Analysis.
In short, MAXRES is a true force multiplier—an incredibly powerful suite that delivers a fully integrated, end-to-end solution for training design, development, and delivery.
