Executive PA Training

Executive PA Training That Changes How You Work

The Executive Assistant Productivity Architect Programme helps experienced Executive Assistants and PAs use Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI to redesign workflows, save time, reduce pressure and support leaders at a higher level.

This is executive PA training for professionals who want more than generic software tuition. It helps you move from reactive support to strategic contribution, with practical systems you can apply immediately.

Led by Paul Pennant, a Microsoft MVP and former Executive Assistant, this five-week programme is built for real executive environments. It is delivered by Today’s PA, trusted by over 4,000 organisations worldwide.

Why many Executive PAs still feel reactive

• Constant inbox, diary and meeting pressure leaves little time for strategic work
• Microsoft 365 is often used partially rather than as a joined-up workflow system
• AI feels important, but hard to apply safely and usefully in real assistant work
• Manual admin, duplication and follow-up take time away from higher-value support
• Most training adds information without changing how work actually gets done

Executive PA training with real workplace impact

This programme is assistant transformation first, Microsoft training second. You will learn how Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI work together across real executive workflows, so you can reduce friction, improve organisation and create more space for proactive support.

• Save time: reduce repetitive admin, chasing and unnecessary manual work
• Gain control: build calmer systems for inbox, diary, meetings and follow-up
• Support leaders better: improve communication, prioritisation and decision support
• Work more strategically: use Microsoft and AI to increase your value and visibility
• Progress your career: build confidence, capability and modern assistant skills

Why this is different from generic PA training

Generic training teaches features. This programme transforms workflows.

• Generic training teaches apps in isolation. This programme shows how Microsoft 365, Copilot and AI fit together in real executive support.
• Generic training focuses on knowledge. This programme focuses on practical implementation and visible change.
• Generic training is tool-led. This programme is built around the real pressures and responsibilities of Executive PAs.
• Generic training helps people learn software. This programme helps Executive Assistants change how work gets done.

You do not leave with theory alone. You leave with practical systems you can use immediately.

What you will be able to do

• Use Copilot and AI more confidently for drafting, summarising and analysis
• Build stronger diary, inbox and task workflows
• Run meetings with clearer actions, ownership and follow-up
• Create executive-ready documents and presentations more efficiently
• Reduce repetitive admin through smarter use of Microsoft 365 and automation
• Improve prioritisation, communication and workflow control
• Support senior leaders with more structure, clarity and consistency
• Operate with more confidence, visibility and strategic impact

Who this programme is for

• Executive PAs and Executive Assistants supporting senior leaders and decision-makers
• Assistants who feel overloaded by volume, complexity or constant interruptions

• Assistants who want practical, safe and relevant AI application
• Organisations that want more effective support and better return on Microsoft and AI investment

How the programme works

You will attend 10 live half-day sessions across five weeks, with time between sessions to apply what you learn in your real role. The focus is on implementation, not passive attendance.

• 10 live half-day sessions over five weeks
• Real executive scenarios, not generic exercises

• Small cohort delivery for support and accountability
• Completion based on applied workflow improvement
