VRCBVI is pleased to offer additional virtual training opportunities through July 2! We are excited about this upcoming schedule of events! Certain listings include an "ideal" audience, but all events continue to be open to anyone and free of charge. As you scroll through the list of events, you will notice that all of them begin at 2 pm but that many of them vary in length. Please check out and select events you'd like to attend, then tell us about yourself near the bottom.
