Nurse managers at VA

I am not sure if anyone here is a nurse manager at the VA. I will be entering a position shortly at a smaller VA and when inquiring about my orientation I can't seem to get a straight answer. I am wondering what kind of training does the VA offer for leadership positions?

All supervisors will take a series of online training modules (there is a significant amount of content) on leave and attendance, unions, and other topics that are necessary to function in the role. Depending on the facility, there might also be webinars or face-to-face classes. You might have a mentor, follow another nurse leader for a few days, or possibly have an assistant manager or lead employee who can show you the ropes. I know this answer gets old, but aside from the computer modules (national requirement), it really varies VA to VA.
