It's always a pleasure to see our students' success stories. In the last few months, even in the current uncertain labour market, we have seen many of our EA students be promoted or get new jobs. Here is a summary of a few case studies of EAs that we've educated, and that we are incredibly proud of:
Two EAs promoted to Business Support Manager, in recognition of their increased responsibilities;
One EA got a salary increment, which she was told was very, very rare - not only due to the pandemic, but also due to her grade in the firm;
One EA secured a new job (in lockdown) as EA in a major blue-chip organisation;
One EA secured a new job (in lockdown) as EA to CEO of a blue-chip financial services firm;
One Senior EA is redefining her role as Business Support Manager, and employing an Assistant to support her;
One PA has been promoted two grades higher than her current role, even though she was discouraged from applying;
One EA has become Senior EA with a total redefinition of her job scope, and is also recruiting a junior PA to relieve her of the routine aspects of the job.
We are delighted for our current and former students above (you know who you are!) and it just goes to show how valuable professional education and qualifications can be on the progress and recognition of the EA.
