VTS Forum

The Forum provides an opportunity for educators to explore VTS, discuss how VTS manifests in different settings, how it works for different constituents and more. You will hear regular updates about VTS trainings and programs, and stay in touch with the National VTS office. The forum is open to any individuals interested in education and VTS.

The Forum Coordinator will plan a monthly phone call, each focused on a different topic. All calls are open to any Forum members. The topics vary from program to research, fundraising to outreach and new topics that forum members recommend. The calls will be held on the Third Tuesday of the month at 2:00pm EST/11:00PST.

To receive notifications for future VTS Forum Calls please send an email to info at vue dot org and say that you would like to be added to the VTS Forum list.
