VA Certification - Great discussion!

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

It’s time to reconnect with the community to hold the second Future of Virtual Assistance call to discuss another hot topic.

The conversation around VA Certification has been brewing for years - there have been discussions at VA Conferences, on message boards, within private groups and associations - with no general agreement yet on the subject.

Will a certified VA be more successful than a non-certified VA? Will the business owners we support find value in having a certified VA?

If you’ve been a VA for years, should you consider this? If you’re new to the VA world, is it one more thing to look into?

Listen in and hear with your fellow Virtual Assistants have to say on this topic:

Future of Virtual Assistance Series begins May 27th

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

8-month discussion series seeks to expand the world of virtual work and stimulate leadership and innovation

What is the future of virtual assistance, online business management, cutting-edge technology and the work-at-home movement as a whole? What are the industry-wide issues that need resolving? What do clients want most from virtual professionals right now that we aren’t providing?  What are their biggest complaints?  What new ways will virtual services be delivered?  How will virtual workers prove their reliability to clients, faster, and build deeper relationships? What is the role of the virtual worker in our society?  What more is possible in this industry?

These are some of the questions that virtual workers and their clients will be discussing and debating in the Virtually Successful-sponsored Future of Virtual Assistance Series, which launched on May 27th right here in the V-Scoop. The theme for our first call is:

“The ‘New’ Client - How the Needs of Clients Have Changed in this new Economy”

The first-ever Future of Virtual Assistance call showcased over 45 years of wisdom and experience and… The res’ults on the call - innovation, trends, leadership, possibilities and action steps toward quality service of our clients - were nothing short of extraordinary.

“Extremely helpful ideas.”

“Thank you for allowing us to contribute for the benefit of everyone.”

“We can seize the massive opport’unities coming.”

Of course, we’re not surprised at all by this, because YOU are the ones contributing. Be sure to make time to listen to this call where you and your colleagues share exactly what is going on in the trenches, what they can see on the horizon, and what we’re being called to do as a res’ults.
