PA Diploma at the leading edge of science


Kate Richardson, PA to the Vice President, Biopharmaceutical Development at MedImmune has become only the third holder of a ‘Pass with Distinction’ for the highly prestigious APA Diploma in Personal Assistance (DipPA). And the second with the surname ‘Richardson’.

Kate said: “I am really pleased to have had the opportunity to take part in this Diploma programme and am, of course, thrilled to be the second Richardson to pass with such a great result!!”

“I would highly recommend the course to anyone who is keen to develop their career as a PA. Although the course was challenging at times, I came away full of enthusiasm and with lots of new ideas, which I am looking forward to putting into practice over the coming months. It was also a fantastic opportunity to mix with other PA’s from across the country (in our case, across Europe) and be able to share ideas and experiences.”

APA DG, Gareth Osborne said: “Kate is unquestionably a fine PA and plays a major role in the performance and success of her Boss and their division within a major international and highly visionary biologics business. Like all Diploma holders, she is a role model for great PAs everywhere.”
