VMSI VAAA CPS Team Honored as 2018 Learning! 100 Winner

Proud recipients of the
Learning! 100 Award!

VMSI is proud to announce that our onsite VA Acquisition Academy (VAAA) Contracting Professional School (CPS) Team was honored by Elearning! Media Group as one of the Top 100 global learning organizations of 2018 for high performance, innovation, and culture!

VMSI employees played  a key role in assisting the VAAA Contracting Professional School in Frederick, MD with the design, development, and delivery of the Senior Acquisition Leadership Training (SALT) Program. The SALT Program was recognized by Elearning! Magazine for the #1 ranking in the public sector and given the 2018 Learning 100! award. This prestigious award is based on several industry standards, including Darden School’s Learning Culture Index, Collaborative Strategies’ Innovation & Collaboration Ratings, and overall organizational performance.

The SALT Program has been gaining nation-wide recognition since the first class graduated from the 9-month program in June 2018. Our team worked extensively with VA leadership across the country to create this unique program and their tireless efforts deserve recognition!

According to the VAAA CPS website, the Senior Acquisition Leadership Training (SALT) Program is a “cohort-based development program for supervisory 1102s [which is] designed to move the emphasis from technical to leadership competencies, creating leaders who are agile, understand themselves and others, think critically and strategically to get results, effectively communicate, are able to manage and lead change, and can lead from where they are now while readying themselves for the future.”

We are incredibly proud of our onsite team and their dedication to the VA Acquisition Academy’s mission “to serve the Veteran, the Federal workforce and the taxpayer by providing best-in class training programs”. Your hard work has created an elite program which will continue to improve leadership skills for countless professionals!
