VR + Agile = Employer advantage
What makes this combination so valuable to employers? VR developers trained in Agile methodologies bring:
- Cross-disciplinary problem-solving skills – They translate complex real-world challenges into digital solutions using structured, iterative processes
- Client-centered approach – OVRP fellows work directly with stakeholders, gathering requirements and implementing feedback effectively
- Creativity meets expertise – Mastery of Unity for VR development paired with Scrum certification creates professionals who both build solutions and manage development workflows
- Flexible Professionals – Versed in both team-based development and subject matter expertise, graduates are trained to learn and deploy new skills.
Real-World Impact
The OVRP’s intubation simulation project demonstrates these skills in action. Working in Agile sprints, fellows collaborate with UNMC doctors to capture precise medical procedures and create interactive 3D simulations. Creativity meets expertise, showing their ability to:
- Navigate complex stakeholder requirements
- Deliver incremental value through regular sprint cycles
- Balance creative solutions with structured development processes
- Integrate complex systems like motion capture
The Business Case for Hiring VR and Agile Talent
The program has already produced impressive results: 14 professional certifications and 24 completed development sprints on real-world projects. For employers, this translates to:
Fellows are transforming healthcare training through innovative VR simulations.
At Omaha’s VR Pipeline, they work directly with medical professionals to create realistic intubation procedures. Through this hands-on experience, they develop specialized problem-solving skills that bridge technical and real-world challenges. Additionally, they learn to deliver solutions through structured, iterative processes that respond to stakeholder needs.
