About BVAC Professional Partners
Why does BVAC work with professional partners?
BVAC works with qualified organizations and subject-matter professionals when a partnership expands the training, technical expertise or support services available to students, agencies, employers and community members.
Are partner organizations part of BVAC?
Not necessarily. A professional partner may be a separate organization providing its own training, instructors, services or expertise. The applicable course or service page identifies the organization involved.
How do I know who is responsible for a particular course or service?
Review the specific program description, registration page, proposal or agreement. Contact BVAC if anything is unclear before registering.
