The significance and extraordinary effectiveness of using VR technology into health, safety, and environment (HSE) education are highlighted. It addresses the many benefits that VR has to offer, especially when it comes to fire exit training, by giving students engaging, involving, and profound learning experiences. The research highlights the seamless incorporation of VR into Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) courses, where VR simulations serve as important tools for teaching crucial evacuation tactics and encouraging students' in-depth understanding and preparedness for actual fire emergencies. This study investigates students' responses regarding their understanding in one of the HSE subject following the implementation of VR technology. Valuable student feedback has been gathered through comprehensive surveys, enabling a continuous process of improvement and refinement for the HSE program. Overall, this research stands as a compelling testament to the profound impact of VR in optimizing learning outcomes and fostering a heightened sense of safety awareness in professional environments.
