We pride ourselves on developing the potential of Office Professionals which includes Executive Assistants, Personal Assistants, Secretaries, Office Managers and Administrators. Our courses are aimed at developing your potential, productivity, employee engagement and showcase your value to your organisations. Office Professionals are the engine room of any business ensuring that processes and systems flow well. Research has confirmed that they take their pressure off their Leaders & Managers and contribute up to 40% to their success.  

Our programmes pass rigorous assessment by the ILM & CPD Standards Office and delegates take away CPD Standards Office Certification and ILM Certification. We also fast track our delegates through to Management Courses at Birkbeck, University of London and as a result many have now been given promotion in the workplace due to their interest in business studies. 

Delegates enjoy our sessions as they are led by a Trainer whose previous career was as an Executive Assistant, so the understanding of the challenges Office Professionals face creates empathy and rapport. Learners leave our courses motivated and inspired with key takeaways to implement on their return to the office.
