Not every administrative professional is ready to run the office of a senior executive or a public figure — that takes a specific kind of preparation. This Training Course exists to build exactly that pipeline, drawing on British business administration technique to prepare candidates capable of leading high-level offices.

Management practice changes constantly, and this course works from what's current in British approaches to business administration — organisation, professional behaviour, and time management among them — alongside the core executive secretarial skills the role demands. It's designed as a reference point for participants aiming to step up into more senior, more sensitive administrative positions.
