It&#8217;s not necessary to upgrade your VA&#8217;s equipment. However, in some situations, a better-quality headset\/webcam or an extra desktop monitor can help your VA be more productive at work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The typical equipment provided by the VA includes the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Noise-canceling headphones<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Laptop<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mouse<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keyboard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Backup source for Internet access<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Any additional equipment you require them to have needs to be purchased at the cost of your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Requesting equipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you require your VA to have specific equipment for the position you\u2019re offering, you may request it in your initial job post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the position requires additional equipment, software subscriptions, etc. after the VA\u2019s role becomes active, then, depending on the request, you&#8217;ll need to provide those at your own cost. For example, you don&#8217;t need to provide a dual screen if you put it in your initial job request. Instead, we can hire a VA who is prepared with the right setup for the job.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should you need to provide additional equipment, our team on the ground in the Philippines is happy to help. We can source the equipment, pay for it, and charge your card on file. Then, we can manage the shipping and delivery to ensure it gets into the hands of your VA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have more questions about the&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/tawk.to\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tawk.to<\/a>&nbsp;Virtual Assistant program?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/managed-chat-service\/hire-a-va\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Schedule a call<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","faq-type":[],"class_list":["post-129997","va_faqs","type-va_faqs","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tawk.to\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/va_faqs\/129997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tawk.to\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/va_faqs"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tawk.to\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/va_faqs"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tawk.to\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"faq-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tawk.to\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq-type?post=129997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
