About Bruce Pearce

For over two decades I’ve specialising in digital communications and project management, before making my way into education and immersive learning, I've consistently remained at the forefront of technological innovation.

Currently I’m simulation and immersive-learning specialist focused on making emerging learning technologies practical, reliable, and genuinely useful for teachers and students.

In my role as Simulations & Digital Technologies Coordinator at Holmesglen Institute of TAFE, I support the day-to-day technical operations of simulation environments and VR/AR-enabled learning—bridging the gap between academic intent and smooth, delivery in class. I work alongside simulation and digital learning leaders to plan and implement efficient practices, provide responsive technical support, and continually improve how simulation and digital technologies are integrated across programs.

A big part of my value is helping people feel confident with new tools. I design and deliver practical training and professional development for staff, and I collaborate with educators to build simulation scenarios and tailored VR/AR experiences—backed by clear supporting documentation (user guides, manuals) so solutions scale beyond a single project or “champion”.

I’m a continual learner who enjoys adapting new technologies for real-world environments—whether that’s workforce training, simulation logistics, or building digital capability across teams.

My active involvement in the immersive technology sector extends to my role as Secretary of Immerse Australia, the national industry body supporting the adoption and growth of XR across the country. This position has enabled me to contribute to the direction of the industry while deepening my knowledge and networks within the field.

As a lifelong learner, I’ve completed postgraduate studies in eBusiness, Communications, Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Commercial Law. I’ve also earned industry-recognised certifications in Google Analytics and Virtual Reality Design and Development (Unity 3D).

To complement my practical expertise, I hold a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (TAE40122), ensuring my approach to business training remains up to date, dynamic, practical, and highly effective.
