Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to be a Virtual Assistant to attend this conference?
Yes, this is not a ‘learn to be a VA’ conference. The topics and everything surrounding the conference is for those who are currently running their own VA businesses.
Why is the main event on Friday?
Our feedback from participants is that they prefer to attend a one-day conference on a Friday, with an optional Saturday session. Plan to join us for just Friday, or for both days!
Can I just come on Saturday?
No, Saturday is an add-on session for the registrants who are coming to the Friday conference.
Why is the Saturday workshop not available on its own?
The Saturday workshop is an add-on session after you attend the Friday conference. It is a 4-hour morning session for those who want a little extra personal attention following the Friday conference. Give yourself a day off Friday and join us!
What is the dress code for the conference?
There is no formal dress code but it is a business conference. Business comfy – is that a thing? We will be taking photos in the event as well.
Are the registration fees in Canadian or US Currency?
They are in Canadian! Woot! (plus applicable taxes of course)
How many people are you expecting to register?
We are expecting a room of up to 50 Virtual Assistants on Friday, and up to 12 on Saturday. (we may have to cap registration at these numbers due to conference centre space, so don’t wait to register!)
Can I bring a guest with me (I am coming from out of town)?
You can bring anyone you like, but only those who have paid to attend the conference are invited to join us for the sessions. After hours activities are open to anyone who is interested!
Is there a dinner function either night?
We will arrange dinner reservations for the people who are interested in going out after the sessions on Friday evening. Dinner is not included in the registration price, and is totally optional if you think are you tired of us already. 🙂
Can I help with anything?
Absolutely! Many hands make light work. We would love help on site, either Friday or Saturday. Just let us know if you are available and we’ll find you a job! And of course, we would welcome any help promoting this amazing event too!
Are there breakout sessions or different tracks for newbies/veterans?
Nope, sorry. We are keeping everyone all together all day! The session topics are geared towards all levels of business and there will be something for everyone! We take a relaxed approach to the conference, with just a few speakers and lots of interaction.
Can I share a hotel room with any other attendees?
For sure, let us know if you need a roomie and we can connect you!
