Higher Education
Communication practice that fits every course, not just careers week.
Presentations, interviews and workplace conversations, built into modules across your institution.
How RTC Antwerpen built the world’s largest XR education initiative
Four minutes on what they rolled out and how students took to it.
Where it fits in your institution
Start in one of these places, then expand once the results are in.
Careers services
Give every student unlimited mock interviews instead of rationing one-to-one appointments to the students who book early.
Business schools
Build pitching, negotiation and presentation practice into MBA and undergraduate modules, with assessable output.
Individual departments
Add communication practice to a single module - law, medicine, engineering - without waiting for an institution-wide decision.
Libraries and learning centres
Give students across departments a place to practice presentations, interviews and professional conversations, with support from your library or VR lab.

Seton Hall University, Professor of Communication in the Department of Communication, Media and the Arts
"From day one, VirtualSpeech captured our students' attention; even students new to VR were 'psyched' and reported significant shifts in how they approach communication after just one session, something which is rare this early in a course. With its intuitive design, ease of use, and outstanding support, VirtualSpeech made our rollout an outstanding success."
Practice, feedback, and evidence of what changed
The same loop whether it’s one seminar group or every student in the institution.
- You assign the practice - Use our library or build scenarios around your own modules, assessments and the employers your students target.
- They practice out loud - Interviews, presentations, coaching sessions and exercises - with an AI that responds and adapts, as many times as they want.
- They get scored feedback - Within seconds: what they said, how they said it, and what to change before the next attempt.
- You see what changed - Skill movement by student, class and cohort, exportable for reporting and course review.
Choose how students practice
Build practice into teaching, offer supported sessions, or give students access to prepare independently.
Within a course
Assign practice before a presentation, placement or assessment. Students rehearse, review feedback and try again before applying their skills in person.
Through careers services or a shared facility
Offer practice through adviser appointments, workshops, library facilities or a VR lab. Combine independent rehearsal with support from your team.
Independently, between sessions
Students practice in their browser or through your institution’s headset provision, returning to prepare for an upcoming interview, presentation or conversation.
What students practice
From a seminar talk to a placement conversation, students practice out loud, as often as they need, in the browser or in VR.
Interviews
Mock interviews built from each student's CV and a real job description.
Presentations
Seminar talks, dissertation defenses and pitches, delivered with their own slides to a virtual audience that reacts and asks questions about what they said.
Workplace conversations
Negotiation, difficult conversations, feedback and networking: what placements and first jobs expect, built around your own modules or from our library.

Paris School of Business
"I integrated VirtualSpeech into a sales pitching session focused on storytelling, and I was impressed by how naturally students connected theory with practice. They weren’t just rehearsing lines, they were learning to build persuasive narratives, adapt in real time, and deliver their ideas with confidence. It was great to see that level of engagement and growth in such a short time."
Evidence for course review and reporting
Attendance tells you students showed up. VirtualSpeech tells you whether their communication skills actually moved, and which students still need support.
- Progress tracked at student, class and cohort level
- Objective behavioral data from every practice session
- Gradable audio recordings for assessment or feedback
- Exportable reporting for course review and funding cases
Research on VirtualSpeech in education
If your program needs academic support, several published studies have used VirtualSpeech - including work in the Journal of Marketing Education that interviewed faculty as well as students, a public speaking course integration, and a clinical protocol for speaking anxiety.
Fits your existing systems
The questions IT and procurement ask, answered before you have to go and find out.
Single sign-on
Students log in with their existing institutional account. Nothing new to manage.
LMS integration
Works with Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas and others through our API.
Flexible licensing
Per student or shared licenses (for VR headsets) - priced around how you actually want to deploy it.
