VA Newsday

Katie Baird of LooseEnds posted an excellent article on her blog, Loosely Speaking, about current Virtual Assistant training options. She describes the recent explosive growth of virtual assistance, then spotlights both structured training, coaching/mentoring programs and books written by accomplished VAs:

If you are interested in this career and have decided the best means to get up and running is to pay someone to teach you, you’ll have your hands full researching all the training programs out there. Take a deep breath: there are a ton to choose from.  [..]  To help you select the program right for you, I contacted sixteen companies who offer VA training and/or coaching, and asked them to tell me about their approach. Here’s an initial list of respondants, which I’ll add to as I hear back from those who were invited to share details on their programs.

Katie lists her initial responses with links and details regarding their respective programs. If you are a VA in the market for a training program, check out this post!
