DELIVR IT is a free Virtual Reality (VR) experience which demonstrates the international logistics process and encourages job-seekers and students alike to consider a career in one of the fastest growing sectors in Essex. Using the latest Oculus technology, DELIVR IT is designed to inform, entertain and inspire people about the logistics industry and is free to book for educators, training providers and careers advisors.

The user will soak-up a rich and colourful 360° environment as they navigate the world of logistics. Throughout the journey, users can interact with a range of elements to discover the wide variety of roles within logistics including professional and supporting roles which many people may not expect to find in the industry.

The new updates provide the user:

  • New interior environments including a Quay Crane Cabin, Port Control Centre and Warehouse
