ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL GRADUATE!

Dear Miss Reception,
First of all about my interview. I had an interview for receptionist position at Gordon Ramsay Holdings. It went very well as a combination of Easy+Two Way streets. As the result of that - I am on a trial day tomorrow. I will let you know later if I succeeded. And once again I say VERY BIG THANK YOU for valuable knowledge given to us.
Kind regards
Alina

BBC RADIO INTERVIEW & MISS RECEPTION

Miss Reception was invited to speak about etiquette at BBC Radio today and we must say it was a privilege to do so. We were asked to give our opinion on manners, the general way that people answer the phone these days and why we think receptionists are at times not as polite as they should be. Not the graduates from Miss Reception! Being at the studio was a great experience and one which our trainer Sun will never forget. It's important to remember the reason why we need to be courteous at all times and how we need to control our voices and the tone in our voice. This is afterall vitel to a receptionists make-up. The DJ, Fred Mcauley was wonderful to speak with and who in turn has an equally engaging voice for radio. Fred asked lots of questions but mainly wanted to know what makes a good receptionist and what problems have we encountered as a training provider. The live session will be available to hear soon but this was a truly remarkable day again celebrating the role of the receptionist in terms of etiquette, recognition and importance. Long may it continue................

WHAT A LADY HAYLEY!!!!!

When entertainment Lawyers to the stars contacted Miss Reception we were not prepared for the dynamics that were to be Miss Hayley Nott. Hayley we are very proud to say scored for the first time on record the highest ever marks on her final examination paper! 49 out of 50 questions is unbelievable and we are all very proud and still stunned at the academy. Hayley was a breath of fresh air with her personality, (good looks - she asked us to say that) and incredible capacity for learning. Hayley was already working in the role of receptionist but joined the academy to learn more about the role and to gain the professional diploma. As if meeting the rich and famous was not enough in her daily routine, Hayley is a busy girl and belongs to the dance troop Allstarz which tours the world putting on amazing dance acts for big names and events. May you continue on this path of succeeding but true to form Hayley keep doing this with that cheeky and mischievous smile!

CONGRATULATIONS LINDI!!!

Again more incredible news for one of our students Lindi-Alice Moyo. Lindi joined the academy to learn more about professional reception but more importantly to better her confidence and career to give her and her gorgeous little boy a wonderful future. Lindi you are one amazing lady because not only did you pass with exceptionally high marks you have now secured yourself a great job within the NHS! Lindi is a lady who showed humility, stamina and great determination and this is reflected in the way you have turned your life around. Miss Reception could only take you so far but the rest has clearly and confidently been down to you. You are exceptional! Well done (see what Lindi wrote below).
