“Nice-to-Have” Courses
There are many skills you need to be successful in your office administration career. These include both soft and hard skills. The good news is that you can learn these quickly by studying a few short courses:
Computer Courses
We live in a digital world. Most office managers have done away with hardcopy folders. So this means that you need above average digital skills to help you complete your duties. Adding a computer course to your CV shows recruiters that you have what it takes.

Time Management
Learning to manage your time properly helps you be more productive so you can meet all your deadlines. But not everyone has this skill naturally. This is why a short time management course can make all the difference.
Organisational Skills
As an office administrator, it’s your job to manage the office. There are many moving parts involved in this. You’ll have to manage schedules, organise meetings and so much more. An organisational skills course will ensure that you can handle it all.
Email Etiquette
It’s very important that you communicate appropriately in the workplace. The way we talk in- person is not the same as when we type. An email etiquette course will show you how to stay professional in your online work spaces.
