The course is broken down into 5 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

This is a good overview with useful hints and tips covering a broad range of administrative activities and the tools to assist in effectively carrying out these activities. Even as a seasoned administrator, I was able to learn new tips and functions within the tools that I was unaware of to make my role more effective.

I think the Admin and PA Diploma course is absolutely terrific. It gives candidates the chance to develop their skills in the PA and Administration field along with gaining some valuable personal skills along the way. It has given me the boost that I needed to be considered for different job roles in the Administration field and without this my CV would not look as good to potential employers. Giving people the chance to succeed at something they really want to be a part of makes this course brilliant in every way. The layout of each module is set out superbly !

Well structured and easy to follow coursework. My queries were answered promptly and were clearly not stock Q&A responses so I felt I had been given real support.

The test at the end was unexpected as the end of module tests were self marking. As it was a timed test that covered every aspect of the course but in a random way which meant one had to pay attention and read the questions carefully!

I feel I have achieved something and will certainly follow up with another course. New Skills Academy is highly recommended as an online study organisation, as well.

I was very pleased to find a course online which suited both my financial and learning needs.

Really enjoyed the course and would like to take this further. I would recommend this course and found it good value. There is a lack of this type of course available in any colleges in Scotland.

The course has given me motivation to learn and research online about different breads of dogs and their care. I enjoyed the videos attached to the course which were very detailed and easy to follow. I have since purchased the brushes and tools recommended and have had a chance to put into practice what I have learned.

Margaret Whitehead

The course was really easy to access, very clear and easy to read.

Packed with information about so many different topics and situations you may be in as a PA. Helped lots of Microsoft too which I didn’t know about. Very glad I did this course as I have learnt a lot of new things that I didn’t even know you could do online.

I will be looking in to starting new courses with New Skills Academy as it really was so well presented, great support if you needed it and can access it anywhere and continue at any time, thank you.

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.
