## Two courses. Pick the one that fits where you are.

### VA Basics: from zero to your first paying client

The full path. Ten modules take you from what a VA does to a priced offer, a portfolio and a real client pipeline.

- Choose your services: Explore the VA service landscape, score what fits you, and lock in the services for your first offer.
- Price and package your work: Turn your hours into hourly, project, retainer and tiered packages, including a premium tier clients say yes to.
- Build your brand and systems: Define your brand, then set up the profile, portfolio, proposals and onboarding flow you need before a client arrives.
- Get paid and stay protected: Invoice cleanly, track profit and loss, and understand contractor contracts and booking terms without a law degree.
- Find and win clients: Run a 14-day marketing sprint across six channels, handle objections and hold a confident discovery call.

**Certificate:** VA Basics Certificate. Pass the final assessment to unlock it.

**Where it takes you:** You finish with a priced offer, a published profile, a portfolio and the systems to run a client without hand-holding, ready to apply for VA roles or take on your first client.

### VA Skills: master the skill you need next

Five standalone skill modules. Each is built around a real client scenario, so you practise the work instead of watching it.

- Email Management: Set up a filter that sorts a client’s inbox on its own, and reply in their voice.
- Customer Service: Represent a client’s voice and values, and build reusable FAQ answers for real questions.
- Community Management: Take over an existing community, write clear guidelines and moderate without scope creep.
- Calendar Management: Eliminate the scheduling back-and-forth, watch for conflicts and find the right meeting time.
- Data Management: Turn a messy set of data into a clear system, with the discovery questions to ask first.

**Certificate:** VA Skills Certificate. Pass the final assessment to unlock it.

**Where it takes you:** Each module ends with proof of the skill. You keep practice work you can show an employer and carry straight into a real client role.

## What every course includes

- A certificate per course: Every course you complete unlocks its own certificate. It is checkable proof you did the work, not just watched it.
- Real deliverables, not just video: You leave each module with something usable: a price model, a proposal, a self-sorting inbox, an organised system.
- Lifetime access, including updates: Buy once and keep your courses, with every future update to the material included.
- Jobs platform access included: Every package includes access to the jobs platform, where you publish a profile and apply to real VA roles.
