Administrative Assistant Courses

Executives in every kind of business rely on administrative assistants to keep their offices running smoothly, so secretarial training can position you for a ground-floor job in a wide variety of careers. Growth in the small business sector and a backlash against overseas outsourcing are creating job opportunities for administrative assistants with presentation, organization, and computer skills.

Administrative Assistant Job Prospects

Government analysts expect the overall number of new administrative assistant jobs to grow more slowly than most other jobs over the next decade. However, a trend among retiring baby boomers will lead to ample job opportunities for administrative assistants with the skills to transition into existing teams.
