VA SOS trainers can train and certify new monitors. To become a VA SOS trainer you must have been certified as a monitor for at least 6 months and have completed at least two monitoring events. Once you’ve met these requirements, you can attend two trainings with VA SOS staff – one virtual and one in-person – to become certified as a trainer. Trainers must hold at least one training and certify at least one new monitor each year. If you are interested in becoming a trainer, fill out this form.
