The emergence of stereoscopic 3D virtual technologies provides organizations with an opportunity to develop immersive and virtual professional training practices for employees’ transformative learning. This research gathered data from a survey of 326 respondents to investigate employees’ virtual learning experiences in a virtual learning environment (VLE). The results show that a successful VLE model could possibly enhance employees’ learning motivation, process and satisfaction. The empirical evidence of this research suggests that there are three key components of framework for actual implementation; they are (1) the careful selection of VLE; (2) the appropriate design of pedagogical strategies; and (3) the effective use of virtual stimuli which involves the factors of the stereoscopic 3D visualization, telepresence and multisensory interactions.enProfessional TrainingLearning ScienceKnowledge TransferVirtual RealityStereoscopic 3D TechnologyUsing virtual reality for professional training practices: exploring the factors of applying stereoscopic 3D technologies in knowledge transferPeer Reviewed Journal Article10.1007/s10055-021-00504-7
