  • Within 30 days of starting to work with my VA, any trust issues that I might have anticipated were wiped away by her competence and integrity. We've worked together for more than three years, and have added other AssistU trained VAs as my needs have grown, and I have never had a moment's concern about their ethics or business practices. I truly believe that they are the best VAs in the world!

    —David Goldsmith, entrepreneur

 
AssistU Ethical Policies

From the time we formalized the Virtual Assistance profession, AssistU has had the highest professional standards. As we've grown, we've continually held the bar high for the industry in many ways, including developing the strongest definition for what VAs do and what Virtual Assistance is, and having a stringent code of professional ethics and standards of excellence all VAs in our community agree to adhere to in the running of their businesses. Our goal is professionalism, and our policies show that.

Here you'll find those policies, as well as a grievance process for anyone working with, or having professional dealings with an AssistU VA who believes the VA has violated our ethical guidelines; we realize that it's not enough to expect our standards to be upheld — we have to be willing to make sure they're upheld, or there's no reason to have them to begin with.

We hope the public as well as all professional Virtual Assistants (whether currently part of our community or not) will familiarize themselves with these guidelines in order to understand the commitment to high professional standards all AssistU VAs make.
