VIRTUAL TRAINING


             11th of January, 2013 marks our parting time with the Sacred Project Training. It is a group organized by a person of foreign blood but with the noble deed of reaching out to Filipinos. Ms. Christiane Holbrook, German-American, who, despite her nationality still believes in the credibility of Filipino workers. She created a page on facebook  http://www.facebook.com/groups/sacredvatraining/  where Filipino virtual assistants are welcome to join in. Afterwards, she decided to give free training  to 6 of us. What a kind heart she has for her to dedicate some of her time, providing us with training “modules” , and a once a week  one- hour online meeting. All, for seven weeks!

             Though hesitant at first for I’m aware of how little I know of virtual assistance, I tried the training. Yes, it was difficult because we had to do research and study a lot. But it was really worth a try! From that training I learned :
  • Audio Creation
  • Video Creation
  • Video /Article Syndication
  • Social Media Mastery

And a lot more like :
  • MS Powerpoint
  • Conversion from powerpoint to video
  • Trimming of Audio
  • Screencapture
  • Conversion of Files to PDF files

             And of course, English. Despite my timidity, I was sometimes obliged to speak up. J That was good for me, actually. To practice my English.
             Most importantly, the friendship that grew in us. How nice it is to be friends with people who have the same purpose of working online and of “changing the world”.
