The Executive Assistant Diploma prepares students to serve as office managers and assistants to senior managers in both industry and government. After completing the Administrative Assistant Certificate in Year 1, students go on to take additional courses in management, business communications, and economics in Year 2. With this additional year of study, students will be well prepared to write the accreditation exams for the Certified Professional Secretary (CPS) and the Certified Administrative Professional (CAP) programs. Graduates can also ladder into the Bachelor of Business Administration degree and receive nearly full credit (45 credits – 15 courses) for the work they did in their diploma.
