Why This Matters Now
State VR agencies and community providers are working harder than ever, often with fewer staff and growing caseloads. A recent national needs survey highlighted a clear need for more—and better—training, onboarding, and career development opportunities to ensure every staff member can thrive.
That’s where StaffUp ASAP comes in.
This accelerated training program is designed to help agencies fill critical skill gaps and support VR professionals with high-quality training, stackable credentials, and practical tools that make a difference on day one. And best of all? It’s offered at no cost thanks to support from the U.S. Department of Education.
What You’ll Learn in the Webinar
During the webinar, our team will:
- Break down the origins of StaffUp ASAP — why it was created and how it came to life through collaboration with VR experts and partners nationwide.
- Show how this training meets an essential workforce need, equipping practitioners with the skills they need to serve people with disabilities more effectively.
