Overview
The aim of this Advanced EA Business Skills Diploma is to fill the gap for an advanced Business Course for Executive Assistants. In the last 10 years the responsibilities of Executive Assistants & Personal Assistants in the workplace have increased significantly, aided by technological advances.

In order to fulfil this role EAs are required to increase their knowledge of business, how it operates, the impact of decisions made, be proactive, take on additional responsibility, be the 'right hand' of their Leader, prompting, anticipating and forward planning. An understanding of their organisation's business strategy is vital so the EA can fulfil their role as the EA Business Partner.
