Virtual Format for the VMF 2 Course Extended Through 2023

By Bob Rude, PE, CVS-Life, FSAVE – Chairman, SAVE International Certification Board

The SAVE International Certification Board has agreed to allow the virtual format for the Value Methodology Fundamentals 2 (VMF 2) course through December 31, 2023.

Licensed VMF 2 instructors are able to use a virtual teaching format for the VMF 2 course through the end of 2023, as long as they integrate the protocols and the supplemental facilitation slides. VMF 2 instructors should visit www.value-eng.org/VMF2InstructorProcedures for a list of requirements and other important information.

Teaching the VMF 2 course is intended to be in-person to maximize the students contact with the instructor. Live virtual instruction is approved as an alternate option to in-person class teaching. However, pre-recorded teaching in lieu of in-person or live virtual instruction is not allowed, as it would limit or remove the students opportunity to ask questions as the materials are presented.
