    Scientia Education Experience: Inspired learning through inspiring teaching

    Engaging young people in saving represents a significant challenge in retirement in today's ageing society. Retirement VR aims to address these challenges by providing an immersive experience to encourage people to save more for retirement. In collaboration with the Educational Delivery Services of the PVCE Office, we created an immersive learning experience for our Retirement Saving courses using Virtual Reality (VR) technology. This innovation enables students to connect emotionally with their ‘future selves’ and ‘see’ the impact of their current saving decisions on their future retirement living standards.
