About The Course
How do I achieve the Standard?
During the course, you will cover topics such as project management, communication, understanding administrative legislation, business processes, administrative activities, and decision making to improve the business' administrative performance - as well as managing your own professional development.
Will I Need To I Attend Classes?
Great news - there are no classes to attend at a college, but you will be required to attend master classes using the virtual classroom access we provide.
You will have regular contact with your Parenta tutor either remotely or face to face to observe you at work and check you’re fulfilling the course requirements. Your tutor will set you course work to complete on OneFile our e-learning platform and will agree submission timings with you. It is important that you meet your submission deadlines to ensure you complete your Standard on time.
Will it take up much of my time?
As with anything worthwhile, this course requires you to dedicate some of your time to it. This will be a minimum of 12 months, but afterwards, you'll have the fantastic feeling of setting yourself up for a long and rewarding career.
You will be assigned your own tutor to support you throughout your course. However, you will be required to do some independent learning.
You should set aside approx. 10 hours a week to work towards your Standard. You may prefer to split this time up into a few evenings a week and some time at the weekend, but it’s entirely up to you.
The course is made up of 2 parts, as follows:
