NATIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONALS' DAY

National Administrative Professionals' Day, also known as Secretaries Day or Admin Day, recognizes the professionals who keep an office running smoothly every day. Celebrate these professionals on the Wednesday of the last full week in April of each year. The day recognizes the work of secretaries, administrative assistants, receptionists, and other administrative support professionals. Central to any business, these professionals keep an office organized and efficient. We would like to recognize ALL of the dedicated and hard working administrative professionals around the world, here in Emerado, and our very own Janelle Klava! 

#AdminProfessionalsDay

The day in the life of an administrative professional is varied from moment to moment. While organization is key to their success, their flexibility and ability to handle the unexpected make them valuable to any business. Some of their responsibilities include managing appointments, drafting letters and memos, booking business trips, coordinating appointments, and planning meetings. 

Administrative professionals compile data and research information, too. Their organizational skills mean they pinpoint information quickly and keep the executive on schedule, whether they are in transit or with a client. They are central to an office or business running efficiently. 

NATIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONALS' DAY HISTORY

The International Association of Administrative Professionals promotes National Administrative Professionals Day. The observance was first launched in 1952 when U.S. Secretary of Commerce, Charles Sawyer proclaimed June as National Secretaries Week. In that same year, June 4th was designatedNational Secretaries Day. The name changed to Administrative Professionals in 2000 when the day was also added and the events moved to April. 

Make sure to give all administrative professionals a big THANK YOU!
