Immersive technologies have shown effectiveness and relevance in the educational space. Global challenges of sociocultural nature have necessitated the use of innovative learning environments that have become an alternative to the traditional educational system. The research aims to analyze the status of immersive technologies in the teacher's professional skills cluster. The article aims to position immersive elements in practical in educational strategies in the short and long term, which specify the teacher's competencies required to organize the educational process using VR/AR/MR/XR. The methodology of the study is associated with the use of general scientific, scientific- pedagogical, and scientific-technological means that allow to analyze of the content and form of virtual reality elements in the process of their use in education. A promising direction of research is the consideration of the professional competencies of a teacher through the prism of the balance between the traditional face-to-face and innovative virtual format of education. Consequently, immersive technologies become a relevant learning environment in the educational space, which leads to modernizing transformations in the preparation of professional competencies of the teacher, who must have appropriate digital skills to be able to organize the learning process in VR-format.
