Personal Assistants
As a Personal Assistant, you work directly with one or more individuals to help them with various aspects of their daily life, to help them live as independently as possible.
In order to compete in an ever-increasing competitive market, you will need to demonstrate both your value and your worth to any prospective individual employer. Having a solid CV to showcase your experience, backed up by robust training, will help you.
Furthermore, the individual employer’s own family may well want to oversee your work. Give yourself the best chance then to get ahead and to impress by upskilling yourself with our professional social care training - see the choice of courses here.
