Standing Out from the Crowd

When you attend a PA course, you’re making an investment in yourself and your career.  You are also taking a step up and starting to stand out from the crowd.

With such a range of PA training courses on offer, you can decide whether you want to brush up on individual skills, such as minute-taking or assertiveness training, or take an all-round PA course which will look at your role as a whole.

No matter which course you take, it will make a statement on your CV and keep you one step ahead when it comes to job-hunting or getting that promotion.

Businesses increasingly rely on technology (some even becoming “paperless”) so PAs and EAs with strong IT skills are always going to be in demand. Good PA training in Microsoft Office will keep you up to date with new versions of the software and help you to become more confident with technology as a whole.

All-round, total immersion PA training will also give you a competitive edge.  These courses look at every aspect of being a PA and are aimed at giving you a greater insight into your role, your boss’s role and the work of your employer. You will also discover how to build and improve working relationships, work more efficiently and effectively, and acquire a range of skills that you will have at your fingertips.

Taking a PA course in a specialist subject can make an impact on your CV, giving you a competitive edge when it comes to job-hunting or promotion.  It can also open up a new world of opportunities – from taking a sideways step to changing careers entirely.

Specialist PA training in Microsoft Office can turn you into an expert.  But as well as giving you a head start when climbing the career ladder, advanced courses in IT skills can lead to new opportunities, perhaps as a trainer or as a workshop leader.

Similarly, PA training in supervisory and management skills will help you to develop your talent in these areas.  It will also provide you with an excellent grounding if you decide take a sideways step into such roles.

Event management and project management can also lead on to other opportunities in different businesses and even different industries.

These specialist subjects, coupled with your strong PA skills, will certainly help you stand out in any crowd.
