Thinking about working from home, or even running your own business? Becoming a Virtual Assistant (VA) could be the perfect fit. Whether you want to offer PA-style support to your own clients or work through a VA agency that provides the assignments, this career offers true flexibility.
A Virtual Assistant provides professional administrative, technical, or creative support to businesses and individuals but remotely. VAs often work on a freelance basis or as business owners themselves, handling tasks like email and diary management, social media, document production, and client communications.
One of the biggest advantages of being a VA is location independence – you can support clients from anywhere in the UK or even globally.
Our Virtual Assistant Diploma is ideal for those living in rural areas, with family commitments, or who simply prefer the flexibility of working from home. You can work as much or as little as suits your lifestyle and personal goals.

Great experience with Lewis College from their tutors and operational staff members, to the Executive PA Diploma course-work itself.

I've recently finished my PA Diploma and I really enjoyed it. The units were really well written and the tutors were great. They were always quick to respond to my questions and very friendly, supporting me throughout the whole course.
The Medical Secretary diploma takes you through a wide range of topics from Spreadsheets, Power point presentations, Professional working relations to Medical terminology, everything a Medical Secretary would need to know and more. The Modules are very detailed and take you through the lessons step by step, so they are suitable for completer beginners, as well as for those with some previous experience.
My tutors were Jen, Rebecca and Simon. They were absolutely brilliant, as they helped and encouraged me throughout the course. Even at times when I felt I wasn't doing well, the tutors were sympathetic and assisted me to work through my lessons. They responded to my queries quickly and always gave constructive feedback for my work.
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is thinking of going into a medical secretarial field.

An extremely comprehensive course (Executive PA Diploma Course), with very helpful and supportive tutors. The lessons were easy to read, navigate and understand. I would highly recommend Lewis College and feel I have gained an abundance of knowledge and skills from working through the course and with the tutors. 😊
Thank you for supporting me during this course (PA Diploma Level 3). I really enjoyed it.
I completed an Executive PA course with Lewis College.
The course was very in depth and having started a PA role whilst completing the course this allowed me to expand my knowlegde further and study alongside a busy PA role. A couple of units did not necessarily relate to my current role (petty cash and letters) but if I was to to change company then this may differ and I would have more confidence in what to do.
Tutors are super helpful and understand throughout.
Would recommend if looking to start a PA career or develop your skills further.
