Welcome to our community! 

The Executive PA Forum is a leading professional development platform for the business support community. 

It is a supportive environment where professional development, learning, connection and growth all thrive. 

Why our community is so powerful

It is empowering to have a supportive community who connect around a common interest and shared experience - the outcomes that flow from that environment can be life changing. 

With every member we welcome, the experience as a whole becomes more and more powerful, memorable and impactful. 

And it will ALL happen right here, because we have:

• more knowledge shared

• more space for connection

• more opportunity to learn and grow - leading to transformation, and ultimately your success!

We have a number of Paid Memberships available, for which you'll find details below, however we also have a Free Membership if you just wish to network and connect with other professionals in the role!

The Executive PA Summit - a place to gather, connect and learn

Formerly called the Executive PA Forum until we launched this platform, the Executive PA Summit is a fully immersive two day learning, development and connection experience for EAs, PAs and business support professionals who want to further their CPD, learn and network with peers.

The Summit delivers a wide range of topics relevant to the business support role as well as workshops that offer an intensive learning and development opportunity for attendees.

The 2025 Executive PA Summit will take place in the Alex Hotel in Dublin city centre on Thursday May 8th & Friday May 9th!

The conference was fantastic, the content from all the speakers was so relevant and gave me clarity on the purpose of my role at my company.

I finished yesterday completely overwhelmed by everything I'd learned and taken onboard throughout the day - it was really fantastic…                               Roisin McNulty, Pramerica

You have exceptional speakers and they're always really interesting and engaging, and always cover things that I can use in my daily working life

Hello there - we are the Hosts of your community!

Fiona & Aisling here! We founded a two day conference in Dublin back in 2010. Prior to this we worked in innovative conference production serving corporate learning & development, wellness and charity fundraising. 

Shocked at a lack of training and professional development opportunities for EAs and PAs, we pooled our skills and resources to create the Executive PA Forum. From speaking to many PAs and EAs during those early days in business, it was evident that many of you felt undervalued and overlooked when it came to training and professional development – and we were compelled on a mission to change that. We are so excited for you to join us on this journey!
