The Squared Away VA Programme
The Squared Away VA Programme is the core VA training programme at Veritas VA and the starting point for anyone building a sustainable career as a virtual assistant.
The Squared Away VA Programme is available for £850 per year, which includes access to the Squared Away VA community for peer support, shared learning, and ongoing professional development.
This structured 8-week virtual assistant course prepares you for professional VA work and self-employment. It is the only full end-to-end VA training programme currently delivered by Veritas VA.
Developed alongside our active outsourcing service, the training reflects how VA work actually operates within today’s business environment.
