A practical EA Course for Executive Assistants and senior support professionals who want better control, less manual admin and a more strategic role.
You will learn how Microsoft 365, Copilot, AI and automation connect across real EA workflows, so you can reduce manual work, improve visibility, strengthen follow through and support your leader more strategically.
This is not a generic EA course or a basic Microsoft training day. It is a practical, workflow led programme delivered by Paul Pennant, Microsoft MVP in Microsoft 365 and Copilot, former Executive Assistant and founder of Today’s PA.
Successful participants are awarded the EAPA Grad designation, recognising completion of the EA Course | Executive Assistant Productivity Architect Programme.
This EA Course is designed for experienced Executive Assistants, Personal Assistants and senior support professionals who want to use Microsoft 365, Copilot, AI and automation to improve how work gets done.
Instead of learning isolated tips, you build practical workflow capability that helps you manage complexity, improve follow through and support leaders with greater confidence.
Most Executive Assistants are not short of effort. They are working inside systems that were never properly designed.
Requests arrive through email, Teams, forms, meetings and conversations. Files sit in different places. Actions are tracked manually. Follow up depends on memory. Information is copied from one tool into another. AI feels important, but it is not always clear where it fits or what is safe to use.
The result is familiar:
EAPA helps you move beyond task execution and start designing how work should happen.
By the end of the programme, you will not just know more about Microsoft 365. You will know how to use it as a connected productivity and automation system.
This is not a certificate for attendance.
To graduate, you complete one practical Productivity Architecture Project based on a real workplace workflow. You identify friction, redesign how the work should happen and show the value created.
Your project should demonstrate:
Where possible, your project should be based on your real role. If your organisation restricts what you can build or share, you may use a sample scenario provided during the programme.
AI is changing the assistant role.
The risk is not simply that AI replaces assistants. The bigger risk is that assistants who understand Microsoft 365, AI and automation become far more valuable than those who do not.
This programme helps you move from AI anxiety to AI leadership. You will learn how to advise your executive on practical AI opportunities, sensible automation ideas, safe use of Copilot, permissions, information access and organisational guardrails.
That makes you more than a support professional. It makes you a trusted adviser on how work should happen.
EAPA gives you a structured way to improve work before reaching for technology.
The first five stages happen before Build. You learn to understand the work, identify friction and design the better workflow before choosing Microsoft 365, Copilot, AI or automation.
Most training focuses on tools. This programme focuses on how work actually gets done.
Each module connects the tools to real EA workflows, so you can build systems that improve control, communication, follow through and decision support.
Live sessions take place on Wednesdays.
Time: 1:00pm to 4:30pm GMT | 8:00am to 11:30am ET
Each cohort includes 10 live half day sessions delivered over 11 weeks.
The built in consolidation week gives you time to apply, test and refine what you are building before the second half of the programme.
Expert teaching with hands on implementation throughout the programme.
Your guide for audits, workflow design, AI guardrails and practical application.
Practical starting points you can copy, adapt and apply to your own role.
Exclusive AI support built from Paul’s Microsoft 365, AI, automation and productivity resources.
Private cohort and alumni support, with Paul answering questions directly.
Revisit the live sessions when you need to catch up, review or implement.
Recognition of successful completion that graduates may use on LinkedIn profiles, CVs, professional biographies and email signatures.
This programme is for professionals who support leaders, manage complexity and want to modernise how they work.
You do not need to be an advanced Microsoft user before joining. What matters is that you are willing to learn, change and apply the tools properly.
This programme is not for passive learners.
It is not for people who only want to watch demonstrations. It is not for people looking for a simple certificate without applying the learning.
EAPA is for professionals who want to build real capability and prove they can use Microsoft 365, AI and automation to improve work.
EAPA teaches assistants to use AI as a thinking partner while protecting accuracy, confidentiality, human review and organisational guardrails.
