Administrative Office Assistant
Today’s administrative assistant is an indispensable member of the
office team. Advances in technology have contributed to this change from
that of the traditional secretary to that of the administrative assistant,
trained to perform in an increasingly complex position.
These factors have given rise to changes in job titles,
job descriptions, salary, and prestige.
The administrative assistant must be skilled in all aspects
of office operations:
- Computer software applications
- Office procedures
- Communications
- Records management
- Transcription
- Data entry
- Human relations
- Document processing
Today’s professional must adapt to and understand the total office
environment. |
