adam fidler academy

Adam Fidler Academy, principal Adam Fidler, was founded in 2016 to provide high-quality education and learning for Personal Assistants, Executive Assistants and Business Support professionals. It is one of a handful of private colleges in the world that specialise in offering formal qualifications and training programmes to EAs, PAs and Business Support Managers. Courses are accredited by The University of Salford, Manchester - Executive Education (SPD), The Institute of Administrative Management (IAM), and the Executive & Personal Assistants Association (EPAA). Qualifications are regulated by SFJ Awards where the Academy has received ‘direct claim status’ meaning it can award qualifications at Level 3, Level 4 and Level 5 directly, without validation from the Awarding Body. The Academy is based in Manchester, UK and regularly attracts students from all over the UK as well international learners. Both part-time and full-time courses are offered which vary in duration from courses of two-days to full-time courses of up to three months, as well as qualification programmes where ‘day students’ attend several days over a fixed duration (usually 9 or 12 months). Online classes have been added for 2021, in light of the coronavirus pandemic. Our classes are kept small for personalised learning; a maximum of 8 students to one tutor and two classes can be run at the same time. We also offer a number of our most popular programmes in central London, UK such as ‘The Strategic Executive Assistant’ and ‘Get Ahead as an Executive PA’. With an emphasis on teaching practical skills and strategies to continuously improve business performance and effectiveness, Adam Fidler Academy is the first-choice training institution for PAs, EAs and Business Managers. To find out more about our unrivalled courses and how you can be part of a new breed of Executive Assistants, see our full suite of programmes by clicking here.

We look forward to supporting your professional growth as a new-style PA or EA.

career inspirations - executive career coaching

I enjoyed a very broad experience with Shell UK, spanning logistics and distribution, business-to-business marketing, retail sales, marketing communications and the exploitation of motor sport sponsorships, customer service, operations and career transition. During this time I was also invited to tutor with The Leadership Trust on their Leadership in Management programme. This increased my desire to transform the performance of both executives and senior managers; and by that, to improve organisational performance too. This interest led me to the world of HR and in particular, guiding organisations through down-sizing processes; and supporting people through the redundancy experience – empowering them to become more self-aware and articulate their value to new potential employers. Specialising at executive and senior manager levels, means I make a real difference to them as individuals, drawing out their real values that positively impact on performance, profitability and stakeholder esteem; and therefore benefit new roles or organisations. For over 25 years, I have provided specialist and focused support to executives and senior managers spanning all key disciplines and the entire spectrum of industry, public sector and 3rd sector organisations. My interest is always in finding a better way to help smooth the process; guiding clients in a more professional way through each stage of their career transition – always with high quality and unlimited 1:1 support – and a unique approach supported by technical reasoning and psychological evidence. I may not always have the answer, but I will work tirelessly with you to find it!
