The office management diploma enables graduates to take on a wide range of tasks in an office. They often receive and look after customers/suppliers at a reception desk, operate a telephone switchboard and process e-mails. They write letters, minutes, memos, tables and lists on the computer according to specifications. Filing (electronic and physical) is also often a typical task. Graduates are often the first point of contact for employees and external persons (for example at a reception desk). This may also include ordering office supplies, managing diaries or minor accounting tasks.
No degree without a connection - this also applies to the office management diploma. Successful graduates can gain their first professional experience in everyday office life with the office management diploma. Further training, the VSH commercial diploma, is also possible if, for example, employers require in-depth commercial knowledge. With the office diploma, you are therefore at the start of your career in a commercial role and a wide range of opportunities are open to you. With the commercial diploma and an internship, you can go on to obtain the Federal Certificate of Proficiency in Business Administration. There are also a variety of courses at the administrative level (accounting, marketing, real estate, social insurance, etc.).
With the office management diploma, you can further your personal development and have the opportunity to immerse yourself in a completely new industry. Perhaps you no longer like your current job after a few years and are looking for a change of direction in your professional career? Then the office management diploma could be the right start for you. During the course, you will get to know other participants and can network and maintain friendships, often beyond the duration of the course.
