Admin, Secretarial and PA are a few of the important part of an executive office or any kind of group workplaces in that matter. While admin administers all the works, overlook and control, secretarial and PA do their own parts maintaining time and order of everything. But to become any of them well, you need a proper knowledge on their roles, how to do them properly, effectively and quickly. Our Admin, Secretarial & PA course is for you.

The secretary's role in any formal group is to be the guardian of the process of meetings. They are usually the person who makes the arrangements for the meetings, including AGMs, and keeps formal records of the group's process and decisions: the minutes of the meeting. The role of a PA is to free an executive's time from organising and administrative tasks so that they can spend maximum time on strategic tasks. We will teach you more than these to do your job perfectly and well in our Admin, Secretarial & PA course.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
