In the last ten years, means of a digital technology have been intensively penetrating in an education. Education is gradually moving into online space as 3D technology, virtual and augmented reality, and other digital technologies and digital tools have been developing. This trend is also referred to as connectivism in education by contemporary information sources. In technical vocational education and training (TVET), the trend is not sufficiently researched and elaborated so far. Thus, our theoretical study is aimed to analyse the current state of knowledge related to virtual reality and to define the main areas of virtual reality that can be used in the condition of TVET. In the first part, we have focused on the evaluation of previous studies devoted to technology development, especially virtual reality useable in education. In other parts, we have then focused on the possibilities of using specific elements of virtual reality in condition of TVET, together with the development of necessary competencies of TVET teachers through further education.
