Case Study
Hajj is high-risk, high-density, and impossible to rehearse for real. Here is how we turned emergency preparedness from a briefing into safe, measurable practice — and what the field results showed.
The three experiences in this training were not built for the season: two come from the Salek Al-Mashaaer system's axes — Navigating the Holy Sites and Hurras Al-Mashaaer — and one from the Immersive Teaching Hospital, deployed in the Hajj context. That is how our library works: it composes across sectors rather than being rebuilt per sector.
The training was delivered to emergency-response cadres operating during the 2026 season, inside an immersive environment reproducing situations that cannot be staged for training.

Simulation of CPR, first aid, and response to emergencies common during the season — with real-time measurement of compression depth, response time, and decision sequence.

Training in identifying and handling health and safety hazards inside the camp under approved protocols.

Field Response
Self-assessment survey administered to 47 emergency-response trainees immediately after the session — the CPR experience applied to Hajj emergency scenarios, 2026 season. — noting that 63.8% of the sample were in virtual reality for the first time.
This is the trainees' response. The performance evidence comes from Miqyas — for every trainee, on every attempt.
Performance indicators from the College of Medicine lab — published once the first season completes.
The methodology footnote isn't a caveat that weakens the number — it is what makes it citable in a formal meeting: a self-assessment survey, a stated sample, a defined measurement point. Every number we publish carries its footnote.
And beyond the numbers themselves: one experience from the Immersive Teaching Hospital moved into the Hajj environment and proved its impact on 47 trainees — practical proof that Al-Amad's library composes across sectors.
