Welcome To The Virginia Wireless Association

The Virginia Wireless Association (VWA) is a nonprofit professional association that was formed in 2008 to develop an official forum for the wireless industry and wireless telecommunication professionals in Virginia. Membership in the VWA is free.

The Virginia Wireless Association was formed to promote an understanding of both the benefits and the necessity of wireless service in and for the state of Virginia. In order for wireless service to exist, infrastructure is required. Our organization is dedicated to educating not only local & state governments, but also the communities throughout Virginia about wireless service and what is required to actually make it work. Like our national affiliate PCIA, the VWA will work to ensure that the future envisioned by the drafting of the 1996 Telecommunications Act becomes a reality in Virginia bringing wireless service to all areas of our state.

For information on membership benefits and on how to become a member, go to our Join Us section.

Maryland DC Wireless Association in cooperation with VWA presents the FCC "Shot Clock" Forum

The Maryland DC Wireless Association in cooperation with the Virginia Wireless Association cordially invites you to attend the 2010 Speaker Series.

The topic of the event will be the FCC’s recent adoption of a tower siting shot clock. In November 2009, the FCC adopted a shot clock of 90 days for state and local jurisdictions to act on tower collocation applications and 150 days to act on all other tower siting applications.

The keynote speaker for the event is Jane E. Jackson, Esq., the senior FCC official responsible for the Shot Clock Declaratory Ruling. Ms. Jackson will also be involved in a roundtable discussion on the topic at hand.
