Learning to assist your boss is a skillset which goes beyond the essential computer based programmes required. So alongside the specific skillset of keyboard skills, Microsoft Office courses, and successful meetings and minutes, we offer a number of soft skills which will enable you to communicate effectively, manage different personalities and understand the requirements of business management. Our PE courses are CPD accredited, helping you to continue to develop in your career with accredited certifications.

With our range of PA courses you’ll learn how to stay one step ahead, anticipating needs and meeting the demands of this challenging, yet rewarding role. You can boost your PA skills with other courses which compliment the wide-ranging skillset, including advanced touch typing, Microsoft Office to an expert level, web design, book-keeping, accounts (including Sage 50 Accounting) and payroll. You’ll also undertake a series of self- development programs. In addition, you can also choose from a range of elective subjects to complement your core skills in the fields of Marketing, HR, PR and Law to name just a few.

You’ll also have the option to study our bespoke Executive PA Seminar, which will give you face to face practical training, where you can work through live scenarios.
