Learn while you lunch!
Four 1.5 hour, bite-sized training courses for
PAs, EAs, secretaries and Administrators
HOW WE CAN HELP YOUR SUPPORT TEAM
We have provided four 1.5-hour training sessions for your EAs, PAs, secretaries and Admins that can be delivered during lunch periods to groups of up to 10 Assistants, in-house at your company’s premises. You supply the sandwich lunch and we will provide an interactive session of insightful learning for your support team. Run two or thee bite-sized training sessions back-to-back or on consecutive days to enable Assistants to dip in and out as work commitments permit.
THE AIM OF THIS IN-HOUSE PA TRAINING
Personal Assistant training and commitment to continuous professional development is the responsibility of every PA. Personal Assistants can be an asset to their organization by consistently increasing productivity and adding value in their working partnership.
Our bite-sized lunchtime in-house PA courses provide a cost-effective and convenient alternative to full-on PA, secretarial and Administrator training. They provide an opportunity for PAs to receive training at their office at a time that is convenient for them and their bosses. Lunch ‘n Learn PA training also provides a forum for PAs to examine problems and learn from each other over a sandwich lunch. The courses are taught by our expert PA trainer, mentor and speaker, Marguerita King (page down for more about Marguerita).
