Kingston University Business School, Centre for Research in Employment, Skills & Society
The Global PA Network's aim is to champion the career development and opportunities for upskilling for the Secretarial/PA Profession. We are delighted that Kingston University Business School agreed to work with us on Research into this profession. Kingston's own enquiries indicated that very little research has been conducted into the secretarial profession over the last 30 years. In that time rapid change has taken place and the role is far more complex than it ever was and recognition now needs to be given to this dramatic change. Our joint research was published in the autumn 2009 and gives long overdue recognition to the challenges of the PA role in the 21st century and it will help us to further develop our training programmes.
‘In house Masterclass Training & Motivational Webinars'PAs of Excellence offer a cost efficient ‘in house’ Motivational Masterclass for up to 15 Executive & Personal Assistants within your organisation.

Make sure your CV is working hard for you.Your CV is a route to new opportunities. In itself, your CV won’t get you a new job, but well written, allied to a thoughtful marketing strategy, it will open doors previously closed and give you access to people who may be able to help you find new positions of interest.
The objective of your CV is to get people interested in you. Don’t get caught out by including every detail of your life and career: detail can be covered when you’re in a face-to-face interview.
There are no rules for CV writing in most countries, but here are some things I’d absolutely recommend you include....

‘The workshop provided an opportunity to re-focus on the professionalism and changing demands of the senior secretarial/PA role which is often overlooked when we spend our time helping our managers to achieve their objectives. Rosemary’s own experiences at senior level gave an added depth and enabled her to empathise with our situations. The sessions were well structured and stimulating and I would encourage anyone who gets the opportunity to attend to do so.’ Diane
‘I found the Masterclass extremely useful, it was great to be able to interact and the presenters were excellent. The mix of people was very interesting and gave me a much better vision of how PAs in different companies operate. At a difficult time in my career the Masterclass re-energised me completely. Overall it was a very well organised and stimulating day and I took away a lot of useful tips, and got a really good idea of how I’m being perceived by others. I would like to wish Rosemary and her team a lot of success and compliment them on what they have achieved so far’. Kathleen, BT Global Services
