I am not certified. I have many years experience in the administrative industry and that is what I choose to use. I believe that your skills and experience are what is going to take you where you want to go.

With that said, I will not knock down the VA certification courses that are out there because I have never gone through one myself and I know there are some wonderful programs available. I think it's just a choice you will have to make for yourself.

Never stop on educating yourself, though. If you feel it will be an asset for yourself and business, go-for-it!
