More than 150,000 people have received Virtus training in the Archdiocese of Miami since the program began in 2003.
MIAMI | Virtus is a training program that helps parents, teachers and anyone who works with children recognize signs of sexual abuse and spot abusers.
Sessions are free, around three hours long, and required for all employees and volunteers in schools, parishes and entities of the Archdiocese of Miami. Due to the subject matter, children are not allowed.
To register, log in to www.virtusonline.org; click on the yellow word �registration� located on the left-hand side of the page; choose Miami as your �organization�; view list of available sessions.
Following is the schedule of training sessions for the rest of the year, although more are being added all the time. An updated schedule can be found on the archdiocesan website. For more information, call 305-762-1250 or email [email protected].
