Wonda Pro is a no-code platform for building, deploying, and assessing AI-powered conversation simulations for professional training and education. It is designed for educators, instructional designers, and learning and development teams who need to give learners realistic, repeatable practice in high-stakes conversations — without the cost and logistical complexity of live simulation. How it works Instructors create AI characters that play the conversational counterpart relevant to their training context: a patient, a client, a job interviewer, a social worker, a colleague in a cross-cultural business meeting. Each character is configured with a custom identity, voice, backstory, and behavioural instructions. Learners access simulations from any browser, interact via voice conversation in an immersive 360° environment, and receive a personalised assessment report at the end of each attempt. Assessment is entirely criterion-based. Learning designers define up to six competency criteria reflecting their programme's own framework — clinical communication standards, negotiation skills, cultural competency, empathy, or any observable behaviour relevant to their context. The AI analyses the full conversation transcript against those criteria and generates per-criterion scores, identified strengths, and actionable recommendations for improvement. Simulations are organised into Programs — structured learning journeys that sequence multiple scenarios to guide learners from preparation through practice, reflection, and retry. Programs deploy via direct link or LTI 1.1 and 1.3 integration with Canvas, Moodle, and Blackboard. Single sign-on via SAML 2.0 removes authentication friction for institutional deployment. For organisations with data privacy or compliance requirements, Wonda Pro supports custom LLM configuration, including connecting to an institution's own AI model. Who uses Wonda Pro Wonda Pro is used across healthcare education, business schools, and language learning programmes. In healthcare, nursing faculty and clinical educators use it to give students unlimited practice in patient communication, breaking bad news, and interprofessional collaboration — skills that are critical but difficult to teach at scale. In business education, it supports negotiation training, conflict resolution, cross-cultural communication, and sales practice. In language programmes, it provides immersive conversational practice in a target language. Institutions using Wonda Pro include Harvard, NYU Meyers College of Nursing, Carnegie Mellon University, UCLA, NC State University, and the University of Sheffield. Why it is different Unlike general-purpose AI tools or traditional eLearning authoring platforms, Wonda Pro is purpose-built for conversational skills development. The AI plays the learner's counterpart — not an expert — which eliminates hallucination risk on factual content while keeping emotional and conversational realism high. Assessment quality is determined by the educator's own criteria, not pre-built rubrics, ensuring feedback is specific and meaningful rather than generic. And because learners speak rather than click, the skills practiced in simulation transfer to real professional situations.
