Global PA Association Description
In 2009 & 2012 we partnered with Kingston University Business School, Centre for Research in Employment, Skills and Society, to undertake the very first detailed academic research into the Secretarial/PA role; a ground-breaking study.
One aspect of the research found that many did not believe their job enabled them to use their full abilities, indicating many organisations are wasting the talents of the UK’s 800,000 plus office professionals.
The academic research was then published in Academic Journals in 2012 as ‘Ghetto Occupation in the 21st Century’ with ‘bleak career prospects’.
We work closely with our Fellow Members (Board Level, Director EAs and PAs) to collaborate with organisations on engaging, enhancing and positioning office professional talent.
The research also revealed a high proportion of the sector would welcome a professionally recognised EA/PA qualification that could elevate the status of the role. In partnering with Birkbeck, University of London (2013-2020) we collaborated on a Certificate in Higher Management for PAs (CertHE ManPAs) 120 credit programme, the first year of a degree in Business & Management. With Birkbeck we worked on designing the programme offering Office Professionals the opportunity to develop their business knowledge and management skills and gain a recognised qualification from one of the UK’s top Universities. As a result of the programme many EAs & PAs received promotion on their return to the office.
Since 2013 we have seen the role responsibilities expand significantly with the advances in technology. EAs & PAs now work autonomously and have multiple responsibilities, which are leading them into Management roles. Accredited courses and Qualifications are the way forward . Global PA is setting the pace in the industry on this exponential rise of the profession.
We are the only EA & PA Training Company in the World to offer Digital Credentials with the ILM, City & Guilds, the No. 1 Awarding Body in the UK for Qualifications.
Do join us and find out our future plans for your Careers.
