I have found some valuable training through National Seminars and Rockhurst. Since I live close to the Austin area these one or two day workshops are great. I also found several six-week on-line courses through Temple College Ed2go that has been a benefit to me and also for our Receptionist and Secretary.

I suggest you contact Nickie Hyde, owner of Legally Large in Austin. Although she operates mainly for the legal field, anyone could use her tips and seminars. She is full of good ideas and has weekly newsletter that is invaluable. The web address is legallylarge.com. Good luck

Microsoft also has free Work Essentials webcasts at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/workessentials/HA101950111033.aspx
You can also get tips/tricks and links to other information available from Microsoft at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx

The American Management Association now has a list of courses available for admins. Some are online, on CDs or classroom.

I also want to recommend the P.A. Douglas Seminar. I attending one in Las Vegas earlier this year and found it to be one of the best I have attended. Some of the other 1 day seminars I have attended in the past are just a sales pitch for you to buy something else while you are there. The P.A. Douglas course actually taught tips I could use.

I really enjoy the PA Douglas seminars. They actually seem to understand what it is like in the real world of the administative assistance. The instructor goes through everything with you and If you ever get a chance to attend you will be surprised what you can learn.
