VBA Academy is the training program of North Star Petition Services. We teach aspiring Virtual Bankruptcy Assistants to draft Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy petitions with the accuracy and speed that law firms demand.

Our curriculum is built entirely on official U.S. Court forms and federal bankruptcy law — no proprietary methods, no outdated textbooks. Every module maps directly to real petition fields. When you finish, you can sit down and draft a petition.

Graduates earn the Certified Bankruptcy Petition Specialist™ (CBPS) credential and are listed in our attorney referral directory — connecting trained VBAs with attorneys who need their skills.
