EA How To Plus: The Membership That’s Redefining Professional Development for Assistants
For executive assistants, professional development has often followed a familiar pattern: attend a webinar, take a one-off course, maybe join a networking group. While these opportunities can be valuable, many assistants still find themselves asking the same question afterward:
“Now what?”
Learning something new is one thing. Applying it consistently, building confidence and growing a career around it is another.
That’s where our EA How To Plus Membership is changing the game.
Rather than being just another training platform, EA How To Plus is a membership designed specifically for assistants who want ongoing growth, practical support and a community that truly understands the role.
Professional Development That Doesn’t End After One Course
One of the biggest challenges assistants face with traditional training is that it’s often isolated and short-lived. You attend a session, take notes, feel inspired… and then return to a busy desk with little time to implement what you learned.
The EA How To Plus Membership takes a different approach.
Instead of one-off training, EA How To is a place where you can access resources, best practices and real world advice that will help you refine your skills and continue to grow in your career.
You get access to:
- replays of EA How To webinars (80 + available!)
- an invitation to our group coaching sessions
- an invitation to join your peers in the EA How To Plus Slack Workspace - the best (and most fun) online networking there is
- exclusive online events that happen regularly such as The Resume Review Hour, Cocktails & Conversations, Ctrl Alt Elite and more
- a free copy of The Ultimate Guide To ChatGPT Prompts for Executive Assistants
- a free copy of The EA Interview Blueprint
- a free copy of 100 LinkedIn Post Prompts for EAs
- certificates of attendance
- discounts on all other EA How To courses and resources
The goal isn’t just knowledge - it’s real-world capability. Assistants aren’t left wondering how to apply what they’ve learned; they have the tools and community to support them.
A Community That Understands the Role
Being an assistant can sometimes feel isolating. Many professionals are the only EA or PA in their team and there aren’t always colleagues who fully understand the complexity of the role.
That’s why community is such an important part of the EA How To Plus experience.
Members have access to a dedicated Slack community, where assistants connect daily to support one another in a friendly, collaborative space. It’s a place where members can:
- Ask questions and get advice from peers
- Share ideas, tools and helpful resources
- Request recommendations for anything, such as venues or systems
- Talk through workplace challenges with people who understand
- Celebrate wins and career milestones together
The Slack community quickly becomes more than just a discussion space - it’s a supportive professional network and a place to feel connected to others in the industry.
Instead of facing challenges alone, members gain access to a group of assistants who genuinely want to help each other succeed.
Confidence Through Continuous Growth
Professional confidence rarely comes from a single course or certificate. It grows over time through consistent learning, shared experience and the reassurance that you’re not navigating your career alone.
EA How To Plus supports that journey by helping assistants:
- Build stronger professional skills
- Stay current with modern workplace demands
- Develop strategic thinking and problem-solving abilities
- Feel more confident contributing at a higher level through our coaching calls
For many members, the biggest transformation isn’t just new skills - it’s a shift in how they see themselves within their organisation.
The Future of Assistant Development
The assistant role is changing. Today’s professionals are expected to think strategically, manage complex responsibilities and operate as trusted partners within their organisations.
That kind of growth requires more than occasional training sessions. It requires an environment that supports continuous learning, collaboration, and confidence.
That’s exactly what EA How To Plus is building.
And for assistants looking to develop their skills, expand their network and take ownership of their career growth, it may just be the professional development platform for you.
