Hello Everyone:
This is Maureen Duffy, CVRT and Barbara Hunt, CVRT, members of the Board of
Directors of ACVREP. We’re writing to you because the recent discussions
about certification standards have revived an entirely new discussion about
the
long-dormant VRT Assistant/Paraprofessional issue. It's interesting how the
scenario is rising once again.
This issue is beyond Barb’s and my responsibilities and duties as ACVREP
Board members, but we think it might be helpful to stimulate discussion in the
profession as we face future realities. Many of you have mentioned VRT
Assistant standards in your replies to us, both on and off the Listserv, which
indicates that this may be a timely discussion to reopen.
I'm attaching the VRT Assistant standards, which were written *and approved
by the membership* with a formal mail ballot during Maureen’s tenure as Chair
of the AER VRT Division. If you take a look at the attached standards,
you'll see the official dates of membership and AER Board approval.
Your comments are welcome.
Best regards,
Maureen A. Duffy, CVRT
