BECOME A MEMBER OF THE
PA FORUM

Established in the West Midlands in 2016, the PA Forum has continually evolved, engaging our community with numerous focus, support and feedback groups, together with surveys to help us plan and deliver an engaging and motivational programme of events for our members.

The PA Forum delivers educational content, packed full of inspiring industry leaders and professionals, to support our members with their aspirations, ensuring their personal development and wellbeing is always at the top of our agenda. We understand the importance of building a strong and valuable network that will be there to offer a helping hand or advice through the mediums of group, round table and open discussions, or via the PA Forum mentoring initiative.

We continue to celebrate the outstanding achievements of our colleagues and peers each year with the West Midlands PA Awards, which has proven to be one of our most successful events.

Whilst we are a regional network and will continue to build upon our strong community here in the West Midlands, recent events have opened up the opportunity for us to welcome PAs, EAs, VAs, Office Managers and Business Support Professionals from all over the UK and beyond. We will return to face-to-face events in our region when it is safe to do so but will always have an on-line presence. We will be excited to have you join us!
