VPN allows you to connect to another network. Usually a workplace
network. Once connected, all or some network traffic is routed through
that network. Remote desktop allows one computer to connect to another
allowing the remote computer to be controlled by the connecting
computer.

and

Both give a good overview of the purpose of the technologies.
