The essence of the EA or PA role is to manage the office of their executive in a manner that facilitates them being as productive and effective as possible. This key facet is at the core of our training and development – and is reflected in the titles of our qualifications. EAs and PAs comprise a significant part of the global workforce, but prior to now, no formal qualifications have existed that were designed to address the specific needs of EAs and PAs at different stages in their careers and with this simple business premise at the core of the learning.

Our two-tiered qualifications are different and have been devised after many years of extensive research within this area and are specifically designed to ensure that they meet the changing needs of EAs & PAs, their executives and their broader organisations in relation to skills, knowledge, business acumen, and personal development. Irrespective of what stage you are at in your career, or even if you are hoping to break into a career as an EA or PA, we have a qualification suitable for you.

Unlike generalist business or management qualifications, ours are fully role specific, and have been designed around what EAs and PAs actually do or are expected to do. If you want to undertake study that is 100% relevant to your career as an EA or PA, no other industry recognised qualifications exist that can assist you at any stage in your career. And as thought leaders regarding the ongoing evolution of the EA or PA role, our qualifications will always remain at the forefront in terms of what is being expected in modern businesses.

Delivery

Created to meet demand from students in regional or remote areas of Australia, as well as those living in countries outside of Australia, our Distance Learning Diploma Programs are designed to ensure that students can attain the exact same qualifications as those undertaking classroom based study, working at their own pace but with additional support and assistance from Academy staff and other diploma students.

Including the exact same modules and workbooks and the same assessments and projects, and delivered over the same period of time, students can feel sure they are receiving not just the same qualification, but also the same level of education and training.
