School Certifying Official Resources
Each year the Nevada SAA and the VA ELR hosts a School Certifying Official Conference at no charge to participants. Approval facilities are highly encouraged to attend as the conference covers changes in the law, VA interpretations, compliance survey issues and certifying information. SCO's are required to stay abreast of changes that impact their participation in the program and the conference serves as an excellent way to stay informed.
