The Staffcentrix Portable Career & Virtual Assistant Training Program for Military Spouses™

The objective of this Program is to train U.S. Military Spouses to build successful businesses that are financially viable, portable, and personally gratifying, thereby helping them overcome the career obstacles they often face as a result of frequent moves and sometimes-isolated posts. And, in the process of doing this, to assist these women and men in finding improved self-esteem, better quality of life and greater satisfaction with the Military lifestyle.

Our Training Methods – On-Site, Online, On Target!
As pioneers of an Internet-based industry we are firm believers in the effectiveness of the Net and other technology in business communications. However, as experienced trainers/educators we also know that when it comes to teaching “soft skills” these tools alone cannot take the place of a traditional, face-to-face learning environment. For optimum results, the Portable Career & Virtual Assisting Training Program for Military Spouses™ is presented in phases—using a combination of on-site training and online support. The former draws out knowledge and promotes thinking; the latter puts in knowledge and promotes growth.

Launching a Virtual Assisting practice is a process that requires dynamic thinking and action. Our on-site workshops provide a learning environment that encourages the kind of interaction, insight, and free-flowing creativity that inspires participants to make their vision a reality.

Following the on-site workshops, each graduate receives sustained online support at the Staffcentrix Portal for MSVAs – an Internet-based community of colleagues and experts – for as long as he or she remains an “active-duty spouse.” The information and continuous communication available to MSVAs at our site promotes awareness and knowledge that helps them further develop the skills that will help them succeed.

The Application/Screening Process
At the center of the participant selection process is an in-depth application created by Staffcentrix to provide an accurate and uniform method of gathering information and scoring candidate responses. All spouses wishing to be considered for the program MUST complete this application.

Completed applications will be reviewed and scored according to Staffcentrix’ criteria and the most promising candidates will be invited to attend the training program.

Candidate Criteria
Spouses interested in applying should possess at least the following:

  • A minimum of two years of administrative support experience within the past eight years. 
  • Internet access and a good working knowledge of how to use the Web, email, attachments, browser, etc. 
  • A home office (or the space and resources to set up same). 
  • A computer with Windows 2000, XP, or Vista operating system and basic software applications (i.e., Microsoft Word, Excel, etc.).
  • A strong desire for employment or an employment change.
  • The ability and willingness to attend all phases of the Program.
