I haven't had a chance to really dig through oDesk but it looks high and tight and very well populated. If you have used them yourself I would like to hear more about your experience. Thanks Rebecca.

Virtual assistants are really starting to increase in numbers opening up the world of freelancing to so many more talented people. I thought I might add that <a href="http://www.odesk.com" rel="nofollow">oDesk</a> also has some excellent opportunities for virtual assistants and might make another great resource for your readers.

Hess of Certified Virtual Professional replied to me by email and added: Jason: I’d like to personally thank you for adding the Certified Virtual Professional website link to your site. I am honored that Collette Schultz even thought of passing on the information to you. I do think it is appropriate that I clarify one thing though if I may. The program I offer should not be categorized under certification programs rather professional certification. There is a major difference and it is this difference that makes the Virtual Professional Pro program unique. To be true to the definition of “professional certification”, the parties offering such a program must provide the end user with training and education that is sponsored by a registered business (i.e Microsoft Certification). The other programs (such as said certification programs) I’ve encountered do not offer the level of training, education and hands on experience that I do. The certification programs simply ask the participant to participate in a paid testing process and then issue a .jpeg image emblem to say they’ve completed the test successfully. Diane M.
