    I loved every minute of this Masterclass. In particular, the coaching sessions helped me to deepen and systematize knowledge and procedures that I was already putting into practice for common sense and experience, giving me a new awareness and passion for my work. Thank you!

  • Saudi Power EA

    What surprised me the most is how customized and personal the approach was. It's like having a mentor instead of just attending class or regular webinars. But the best thing about this course is the highly qualified tutor and the chance to share, discuss and consult with them about what is going on in my current professional role, the challenges, analyzing situations and dynamics, also getting direction and advice on how to be better given all that information.

    The Power EA Masterclass helped me understand the global business aspect of my organization. Since participating in the e-program last year, I have felt my skillset has grown. I am now more visible within my organization in terms of the value I contribute. I've learnt the skills and practical methods that have empowered me to continue to thrive in my role. I strongly recommend it!

    The best thing about the online course was having discussions about issues or topics that affect me directly, and receiving different perspectives, insights and actions to help me work through these problems. I would strongly recommend this Program to others in my field.

    Marissa Grondin, Executive Assistant, Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, CANADA

  • NZ Flag

    Exceeded expectations! It is not often that I have come across a training course for EAs that is at a level for executive support. My experience has been that other course have been more suited to personal assistants. I have learned some valuable skills during this month. Thank you for creating this programme.

    The program was really supportive and helped me to know more about the peers around the world and their experiences in the everyday workplace. I really cherish this experience because it allows me to broaden my horizon.

A Uniquely Empowering Online Learning Experience

Release of Modules - How it Works

Module content is staggered over four weeks and released in easy-to-manage online lectures on the Global Assistant Online learning platform. Each step is guided by the program moderator, who partners with you and your fellow participants throughout the four-week period.

Each module contains a series of short, easy-to-follow, self-paced lectures, a test-your-knowledge assessment and takeaways for reflection and discussion during weekly virtual sessions.

Set yourself up for success! Register your Global Assistant Student account for free.

Coaching

You will have an invaluable opportunity to validate and reinforce your learning through group coaching sessions at the end of each week/completion of each Module. All resources are made available during the period of enrolment.

Virtual Workshops

At the end of each week, you are invited to attend a virtual coaching session, which serves as a ‘wrap-up’ of the Module’s lessons and provides the opportunity to workshop various case studies and ‘real-world’ practical situations. The workshops are offered in different time zones, depending on the groups’ locations. We kick off with a short presentation on the topic of the week, followed by discussion and Q&A.

Depending on the topic, guest presenters and subject matter experts may form part of these virtual workshops.

Why not try just one Module?

If you’re not yet ready to undertake the complete Power EA Masterclass, try Module 1 first.

Module 1 can be taken as a stand-alone e-course without committing to the full 4-week program. If you like where the program is taking your learning and want to continue to enrich your experience upon completion of Module 1, you can continue your transformational learning by upgrading to the full Power EA Masterclass program. You’ll only pay the difference in enrolment fee.

Online Community

You’ll have access to The Power EA online community on LinkedIn to interact with global peers on the topics covered, ask questions and seek further perspectives to further your global learning.

Payment of Course Fees

All course fees published are “all-inclusive”, which means just that! You don’t need to pay extra for the coaching components that form part of each program. The Global Assistant Online accepts all major credit cards, and we offer you the option to pay in your home currency on request.

 In their own words … 

As with all great training programs, credibility lies in the feedback. The Power EA Masterclass has been delivered to groups of executive support professionals since 2015. The content is updated and upgraded with the changing dynamics of business and with the benefit of deep insights into the roles of executive and personal assistant.

It's fantastic to hear of Power EA graduates going on to apply the skills gained in training to carve out new careers, while others have leveraged them to redefine and re-energize their roles.

Here’s what some of our previous Power EAs had to say….

LOVED LOVED LOVED the course. Thank you again!

This was the best workshop I have attended and I feel a lot more EAs would benefit from it.

In particular, the one thing I liked the most was the knowledge our trainer has and understanding of what an EA does.
