Training at CIAPS was great!. The ambience and those that facilitated, everything was on point. I was wowed with the way I was lectured during my one-week training. I was exposed to some managerial skills a PA should posses to execute daily tasks.
I love the method of managing your boss and top management at all levels, using the Selling Process.
CIAPS is a good place of learning and I wish to recommend it to anyone who loves to gain knowledge in his or her career.
