The Administrative Assistant certificate prepares students for entry-level administrative roles in the private sector or government. The one-year program covers office procedures, productivity software, business communications, professionalism and customer service. Practical learning activities include computerized accounting, building and working with spreadsheets, document preparation, and organizing meetings and events. The program is offered in person at Holland College's West Prince Campus and, as an alternative, through distance learning, in which students complete the same courses through a combination of scheduled online sessions and independent online learning. Graduates are prepared to support day-to-day office operations, using standard office software and administrative procedures common to a range of workplaces.
