Welcome to the Global PA Network

The Global PA Network offers Training & Development, Events and Career Advice to Managers, Office Professionals, Personal Assistants (PAs), and Secretaries around the world. We offer a portfolio of Corporate Services to public and private sector organisations and our aim is to influence positive change in the workplace and enhance the ability and skills of employees. 

We recognise that the office of the 21st century has changed dramatically as a place to work with the transformation in working practices that technology has brought about. Through our partnership with BT Conferencing we educate office professionals in the use of communication technology and offer motivational and online training webinars.

Our Masterclass training programme has brought people together in the UK, Ireland, Spain, Australia, Mauritius, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines. The Founder, Rosemary Parr, was recently interviewed by BBC Southern Counties Radio and the Evening Standard promoting her message on upskilling of the Office Professional workforce and was invited to judge on the Times Creme/Hays Secretarial PA of the Year Award panel in 2009.

In conjunction with Kingston University Business School, Centre for Research into Employment, Skills & Society the Global PA Network has completed Primary Research into 'Secretarial Skills and Careers in the UK' which highlights the need for upskilling of the profession.  This research was published on the 26th October 2009 and has received extensive media coverage in the national press and on radio. The research was featured in the Daily Telegraph, The Times, Management Today, Institute of Leadership & Management, Times Higher, OS Magazine, Executary Magazine and we were featured on BBC Radio 5 Live, Radio Sussex & Surrey, BBC Wales and Radio Sheffield. The Executive Summary is available from our website and a copy of the full research from Kingston University.

We offer Global PA Recruitment with our own specialist headhunting service, Global PA Career Advice, Global PA Training and Global PA Events.
