In this paper, we explored the factors influencing the effectiveness of military trainings performed in a virtual reality environment. The rationale for taking up the topic is the fact that such trainings are often conducted under specific operational procedures. These procedures may create rigorous frameworks for all elements of the learning environment, including the teacher’s performance. Therefore, to ensure the most conducive conditions of training and, thus, its effectiveness, it is necessary to identify critical factors to be taken into account while designing the training process. On the basis of literature review, we selected, analysed, and categorized the most relevant factors concerning the learner, the teacher, as well as didactic tools and the content. We limited our considerations to the learning environment and the teaching process. We did not explore the organizational level. Another implication concerns the development of a tool for training effectiveness assessment based on the identified factors.
