The Assistant Academy concept

Assistant Academy is a virtual company, a real job-based platform for learning by doing. You develop your skills in the field by working as an assistant across our 7 courses.

Assistant Academy, a virtual company for learning by doing, has been preparing learners for French professional qualifications in office and administrative support for more than 25 years. Qualiopi-certified for training activities.

At Assistant Academy®, our teaching is built on a life-size reproduction of every office function in a company: you build your skills through real-life situations, inside a simulated company. You handle real files (fictitious documents, interactions with colleagues and “trainer-managers”). In role plays, you are treated as a real employee and gain genuine work experience. This engaging approach helps you acquire solid job skills and prepares you for the professional qualification exam.

You sit a session before a panel of professionals: a practical work scenario, an interview and the presentation of your professional portfolio. We prepare you for it throughout the course.

Are the courses accessible to people with disabilities?
