Testimonials:

"This course has everything that a EA/PA needs to gain a comprehensive understanding of the business and the management teams they support. All of the modules tie in together well to make sense of how businesses operate. Even though we all have an idea of what businesses do, the case studies gave the right amount of detail to give a fuller picture on what different sectors do.

The other thing to note was the pace and delivery of the course was excellent. I was concerned that the amount of topics covered would be overwhelming; but it was actually spot on for everyone on the course to be engaged and fully understand all the topics covered. There was time given for the participants to discuss each topic which gave everyone a greater understanding from the different examples each individual shared.Can highly recommend the Global PA Association for their courses! Lisa, Shell Plc

"The EA Business Diploma Programme was so beneficial. For me, the courses that Global PA Association deliver have reinforced the credibility I have always believed there is in being an Executive PA as well as opening my eyes to the importance of business management training for Executive PAs. The trainer, Rosemary Parr is an inspirational Trainer and a fantastic Ambassador for the Profession, determined to get it the recognition it deserves." J, Standard Chartered Bank

'The course was very well structured and had been adapted brilliantly to accommodate the pandemic induced lockdowns. Was a great opportunity to speak to fellow peers and look at problem solving together.
I feel that the course has given me some useful tools for the future and I would recommend that EAs/PAs/
Office Managers of all levels attend as all would see a benefit from it.' S, GHD
