Virtual Academy On-Boarding and Training

VTVLC is excited to support your district with professional development to prepare for implementation of the CSO Online Academy you will be providing for FY21. We know there are many questions, and we are preparing to help support you with everything you need to get started.

These trainings and supports are specific to the Roles as outlined below:

• School/District Coordinator

• Online Academy Teacher

• Special Educator

Scheduled trainings:

All training will be recorded for future access in the VTVLC Academy Online Handbook. For training purposes, grades K-5 are separate from 6-12 because of the way the online content is developed. We understand that some school districts incorporate elementary for grades K-6.
