Administrative professionals can soon earn a national designation by taking courses at Lakeland College.

Lakeland and the Association of Administrative Professionals (AAP) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Lakeland will become an educational partner of the AAP, solidifying their commitment to enhance the education of administrative professionals.

As an educational partner, Lakeland joins numerous colleges and universities across Canada, offering education to administrative professionals in their journey to reaching their Canadian Certified Administrative Professional (CCAP) designation.

“We are pleased to announce the signing of the MOU between Lakeland College and the Association of Administrative Professionals,” says Angela Minish, chair of the School of Business. “This will provide administrative professional staff and students the opportunity to further advance their skills and knowledge in the workplace while also enabling them to excel in their careers.”

This partnership is an acknowledgement that Lakeland’s administrative professional courses meet the academic needs of the CCAP designation. In order to receive this university-level designation, applicants must be employed in the administrative/executive assistant field, and complete seven courses consisting of four compulsory courses and three electives. Compulsory courses include business writing, organizational behaviour, management/supervision studies and human resource management.

“Our educational partners provide the formal education that goes along with the skills and experience our certification program requires,” says Gale Belcourt, CCAP, AAP national director registrar. “We are very pleased to welcome Lakeland College as one of our educational partners that provide an opportunity for our members to learn, grown and thrive.”
