Within 10 days of finishing the spring round of programmes for the APA Diploma in Personal Assistance, a new corps of PAs has started the summer round this week. Amongst the group is Alexandra Glazkova, APA’s first member from the Russian Federation to undergo training and who brought a new international dynamic to the course and allowed co-delegates to challenge differences between the role of a PA in UK with that in Russia (Alexandra is based in St. Petersburg).Shelley Young, APA’s Membership Manager, said, “The Diploma is becoming recognised internationally as the leading programme for PAs and Executive PAs who are looking to extend their skills base, embrace best management practice and develop tools to better assist their Boss. It acts as the perfect forum for established PAs to update core skills or for career PAs to learn new ones. All leave with a host of new practices to ensure they add direct and measurable value.”
There is still time for members (and non-members alike) to enrol for the summer programme which concludes in September but, like buses, the next Diploma programme will follow quickly on its heels.
