Educators with a Premium VEXcode VR License can provide students access to Virtual Skills for both VEX IQ and VEX V5 Robotics Competitions using a VR Class Code instead of a team's Virtual Skills Key. This article explains how to use your VR Class Code to access both Virtual Autonomous Coding Skills and Virtual Driving Skills.
Students will need access to their VR Class Code in order to access VR Skills. The same VR Class Code can be used by every student in the class.
- See this article to learn about creating classes in the VR Licensing System to get VR Class Codes.
- See this article to learn about how to share VR Class Codes with students.
Note: Only VR Class Codes from a VR Premium licensed account provide access to Virtual Skills. VR Class Codes from Enhanced licensed accounts will not work for this purpose.
