Administrative Assistants and Upward Mobility

In a recent article online, it is reported that Administrative Assistants is one of the fastest growing sectors in the job market and also one of the areas where a person can advance the most through more education. It makes logical sense. If you are an Administrative Assistant at a company, earning a certain amount, but then receive a degree or Certificate that opens even more doors for you to advance in your career….maybe as an Administrative Assistant II, III, or Executive Assistant.

A lot of people don’t realize that there is advancement and upward mobility for the Administrative Assistant. It is no longer the way it was fifty years ago where you basically do clerical and secretarial work for your boss. There are responsibilities, and important responsibilities that the Administrative Assistant has to do. They do bookkeeping, scheduling appointments and keeping track of the master calendar and meetings, and being involved in meetings where you are often asked for input on the topic discussed. The work is steady, yet challenging and there is always a high demand for skilled and competent Administrative Assistants.
Getting that education can be a good next step for you as an Administrative Assistant.

The Accounting and Business School of the Rockies offers just such a Certificate in this field. You can complete the classes in as little as three to four months and do it all in the comfort of your own home or in our computer lab.
