3. Make sure all contents are copyright-free. Surge Marketplace will not be liable for any copyright issues.
4. You will be working with Surge Operations: main, franchisees, and other real and existing local and international business. No fear though, we will be there for the whole process assisting in everything.

6. There will be times that we will all work on a task as a team. There will be times that 1-2 will be assigned to specific tasks. This is why the daily 1-2pm meetings are important. This is also our way of guiding you on what to do and how to do it. Again, we will not leave you alone, we will be by your side as you do virtual assistance.
7. If you are not ready yet because you need to review, or your schedule does not allow you, you can sign up in the next batch.
8. We will set a limited task per batch. 35 tasks for Online setup, and 15 tasks for In-Person setup.

How The Freelancing Apprenticeship Program Is Helping Surge Marketplace Students

"One thing that I am very thankful for in my journey here in FVA is during my Apprenticeship Program. I have learned from my mentor to not just reply to messages just for the sake of a reply. Make it your chance to sell yourself every time. “Always make a prompt reply to client”, I learned these tips from Coach Grace and I was praised by my client because of it."
Marvin Gorres
"Hi Coach Grace, I’m so delighted because my first day on my first job ends well today with a good comment from the boss, I did what you and coach Jay teach us from apprenticeship which is doing a daily report to keep track and I did it today and sent him and he so happy because he been in this industry and none of his VA done it. 🙂 he so happy about it and ask other VA to do it start today also and I will be getting more jobs because of doing it. 🙂 Thank you so much, Coaches!"
