HND Bilingual Secretaryship and Management Studies

This diploma programme at Accra Technical University combines the practical skills of a secretary with the analytical side of management studies, all built on a foundation of two working languages. You will learn to manage the modern office, communicate across cultures, and support decision-making at a senior level. It is a practical, people-focused field that leads directly to administrative work in both local and international settings.

What bilingual secretaryship and management studies is

This kind of programme typically covers office administration, document production, records management, and communication skills alongside the study of a second language, usually French. You learn how to organise schedules, coordinate meetings, and act as a bridge between executives and clients. The management side gives you a grounding in how organisations operate, so you can take on responsibilities beyond typing and filing.

Skills you will use at work

Graduates of programmes like this often work as executive assistants, bilingual secretaries, and office managers. The language skills open doors to international organisations and companies that do business across borders. You also develop organisational and problem-solving abilities that are useful in any administrative role.

How competitive is entry?

This programme is less competitive than many other courses at the university. Even so, you still need to apply through the normal admissions process and meet whatever requirements the university has set. Check the Accra Technical University website or contact admissions to confirm your eligibility.
