The OPSA Professional Designation Online Programme is for administrative/office professionals who wish to achieve a professional designation with OPSA.
The programme is run over 8 weeks and each week an assignment/s is submitted towards building a Portfolio of Evidence. At the end of the 8 weeks, the Portfolio will have been completed, the assignments assessed and if all the assignments are found to be ‘competent’, the administrative professional will receive a professional designation.
The programme will refresh/update your communication skills, organisational skills, creativity, problem solving and decision making skills and much more. You will be up to date with what is happening in the industry. If you need help in disciplining yourself to complete your Portfolio of Evidence or need a refresher, then this programme is for you.
Join me for an 8 week journey to professional certification!
