Q: When you said qualifying versus non-qualifying participants, can you please explain what you mean by that?

Q: Could this VR platform be used for credentialing or exams to reduce subjectivity?
The speakers believe VR has potential to reduce subjectivity and could be part of credentialing workflows as the technology matures.
