From May 26 to June 1, 2025, the NATO DEEP eAcademy, in cooperation with the Polish Association for Security (PAS), conducted an “Advanced Virtual Content Creation” training in Olsztyn, Poland, for military and civil personnel from Iraqi HMES institutions. The representatives of the NATO Mission Iraq (NMI) accompanied the group. The training focused on enhancing participants’ skills in designing and developing engaging digital content using tools such as Articulate 360, Articulate Rise, OBS Studio, and AI-powered applications. Through practical exercises and expert guidance, attendees gained hands-on experience in storytelling, visual and audio design, and incorporating interactive elements. The workshop also addressed ethical issues related to virtual content, including copyright and privacy, promoting responsible and informed use of technology. Participants improved not only their technical abilities but also their communication, teamwork, and project management skills—key components for successful digital learning projects. By the end of the activity, attendees were equipped to apply their newly acquired knowledge in their professional environments, contributing to the advancement of virtual education practices within their institutions.
