UPDATE 2020

When I first opened the Charles MacPherson Academy, my primary focus was to educate and help bring new talent to the Private Service industry. Over the last ten years, I have been proud of the success of our graduates as they join the ranks of Private Service Professionals across North America and around the world.

Over the years, we have heard from employers and a growing number of those already working in the industry that there is a need for more learning opportunities. In response to this need, we have shifted our focus to offering professional development courses for Private Service Professionals.

While we develop our portfolio of courses, I wanted to highlight two courses that will be offered in New York, Los Angeles, and Toronto in early 2020. I hope you’ll share these courses with candidates you feel may benefit from upgrading their skills or with clients who are looking to evolve the skills of their household staff
