Made, not hired.
Every TruPorch virtual assistant earns their wings through the Academy — a 90-day metamorphosis of hands-on coaching, real practice, and a cohort that has your back.
Getting in is hard. What happens next is transformational.
TruPorch Academy is where talented people become elite remote operators. It is selective, it is demanding, and it is fully paid. Those who make it don't just get a job — they get a craft.
Admission is selective by design. We invest deeply in the few who make it in.
Our own proprietary LMS — thousands of training videos and resources, on demand.
A structured, milestone-based program. You earn while you learn, from day one.
From caterpillar to butterfly.
Three phases. Ninety days. A complete transformation — coached every step of the way.
Caterpillar
Heads down, learning fast. You immerse in the TruPorch operating system — our tools, our standards, the way we work — with a coach beside you every day.
- Master the fundamentals and our operating system
- Daily hands-on coaching from a senior lead
- Build the habits every great operator runs on
Cocoon
The formative middle — and the hardest part. You practice in the sandbox on real scenarios, safe to fail, and shadow senior team leads on live work until it clicks.
- Sandboxing: real scenarios in a safe space to fail and learn
- Shadow senior team leads on live operations
- Intensive coaching and feedback, every single week
Butterfly
You emerge. No longer a trainee — a full operator who owns real responsibility with confidence, ready to be matched and make an impact from day one.
- Own real work, end to end
- Get matched with the team you'll grow with
- Graduate Base Camp — and keep climbing
Learn to think, not to recite.
We don't hand you scripts to memorize. We teach you to reason — with a method that's centuries old and tools built for right now.
The Socratic method
We teach by asking, not telling. You're challenged to reason through problems and defend your thinking — so you learn to think, not to memorize and recite.
AI-native
You learn to use AI tools on the job — the leverage that separates good operators from great ones in the 2020s.
3,000+ lessons on demand
Our proprietary LMS puts thousands of training videos and resources at your fingertips — learn anything, anytime, and revisit it whenever you need.
Skills for the 2020s
You graduate with durable life and career skills — judgment, communication, and modern tools — not just task instructions.
Trained by people who've done the job.
Hands-on coaching
One-on-one time with senior leads who have done the job. Real feedback, every week — not a manual and a wave goodbye.
Sandboxing
Practice on real scenarios in a safe space. Make your mistakes where they cost nothing, and learn ten times faster for it.
Shadowing
Work alongside senior team leads on live operations. Watch how the best do it — then do it yourself, with support.
“The best training program I have ever seen. Full stop.”
You don't climb alone.
The Academy is hard — but you never face it by yourself. You move through it with your cohort: a class of people who start when you start, learn what you learn, and become the people you celebrate with.
Your cohort class
You start with a class that starts when you do — and become the people you celebrate with.
Monthly socials
A genuinely fun, collaborative environment with regular events to connect and unwind.
Support that never logs off
Teammates and leads who show up for you, on and off the clock.
In their words.
“I applied thinking it was just another VA job. Base Camp changed how I work — and how I see myself.”
“The coaching is real. My team lead sat with me every week until it clicked. I have never grown faster.”
“My cohort became my closest friends. We started together, struggled together, and made it together.”
