What you will learn

Your curriculum

Week 1: Foundations

What a VA actually does, the core tool stack, non-negotiable time-zone and confidentiality rules, and a full real-world morning managing a US executive's inbox and calendar.

Week 2: Advanced Inbox, Calendar & Document Systems

Deeper Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 fluency, expense logging, travel booking, and clean document and meeting-note prep.

Week 3: Client Relationships & Multi-Executive Juggling

Onboarding a new client from scratch, building a voice profile fast, and supporting more than one executive without ever mixing up their voice or their confidential information.

Week 4: Industry Specialization

The different rhythms and tools a founder, a real estate agent, a coach or consultant, and an e-commerce seller each expect from a VA.

Week 5: Advanced Pressure & Confidentiality Gray Areas

Handling a genuine high-stakes scheduling collision for an executive and a real confidentiality gray area under time pressure.

Week 6: Tools & Reporting Mastery

Deep task-tracking fluency across Asana, Trello, and ClickUp, and building the weekly summary report a busy executive actually reads.

Week 7: Full Simulation

Sustaining a realistic week's full workload: multiple inboxes, competing deadlines, and the remote-work discipline of running on US hours.

Week 8: Final assessment

Written exam, a graded inbox-triage simulation, and a practical task-board and reporting exercise: pass all three to certify.

Week 9: Practicum, part one

Three timed shifts on Brightline Office, a fictional company with an inbox, a calendar and executives who behave like executives. Items arrive the way they do in a real shift; every action is graded against the rules of the job.

Week 10: Practicum, part two

Three more shifts including a downtime drill, a peer review of another student's work, and a tutor-marked final. Passing needs zero critical errors.

Prepare to participate

Plan for a computer, headset, reliable internet, a quiet practice space, and time for assignments. Review the student handbook for assessment, access, and policy details before payment.
