Virtual Administration goes Internationaliional...
One particular day in June, I received information via Google Alerts about an exciting course called the Virtual Office Professional Degree Course being run at Sierra College over in Rocklin, California. I decided to research further and send an email to Dr Cyndi Dunn, the degree course creator and programme leader about my VA business in the UK, on the off chance of finding out more information. We were incredibly intrigued, as the UK still don’t recognize Virtual Assistance as an industry in its own right and don’t have a nationally recognized accredited qualification.
Amazingly, Dr Cyndi Dunn got in contact with us and was due to visit Colchester in the UK in August on an international business convention whereby we agreed to meet up and discuss more about the Virtual Office Professional degree course. We were so excited to meet Cyndi, this was our chance to find out just how big Virtual Assistance was in the US and how it operated as an industry.
This chance email and meeting has brought us the fantastic opportunity to work directly with Cyndi and the Sierra College on an international basis as their UK VA contact.
Our work will involve creating monthly podcasts tailored to their individual learning topics and chapters – giving first hand knowledge and experience of running a Virtual Assistance business in the UK. We’ll be doing monthly live webinars and teleconferencing sessions whereby the students will ask me questions on the different areas associated with running a VA business. Plus, providing support to the students, answering questions as part of their online forum.
We’re absolutely delighted to be working with Sierra College and Dr Cyndi Dunn and can’t wait to see what other surprises and opportunities this will lead to.
