I was already quite proficient in many areas that this course covers as I have worked similar jobs before but felt I could benefit from a qualification. This is a very in depth course that covers all areas of being a personal assistant, even ones that I wouldn’t have ever considered needing to learn.

The in-depth learning has built my confidence to put myself out there and try to get back into this career path. I particularly found the section on faxing to be very useful as it’s something that is done in most offices that I’ve found it difficult to come to grips with in the past.

I am already eyeing up more courses on the site and will be sure to give them a try soon.

Maria Casey

Kirsty Jefford

This course has changed my life. It has opened a lot of door and when I apply for jobs it adds distinction to my CV.

It is easy to take time out after work or on a Sunday and it never gets boring. Your mind is filled with new skills and more information that you would love too use in the real world.

I cannot fault this course. I am now applying for University and completing this course will show how dedicated I am to learning.

Faith Bologun

Very Informative course, breaks everything down easily into simple steps.Thank you.

Nicola Hovell

This is a fantastic course, it is incredible value for money and it will give you all the information you need to be able to pursue the career of Teaching Assistant.

Being able to do it all in your own time makes it a lot less stressful if you're trying to fit it around work and life in general and the addition of worksheets throughout helps you see which areas need improvement before you take the final test.
