We must be doing something right, with
the thousands
of requests we get every year for information about
our applicants and students, and the wide selection of employment
positions we have for our applicants and graduates. |
 |
With over 30 years of experience, thousands
of hours of research, and the help of hundreds of professionals,
experienced employees and employers, we are able to offer
you the most concise educational experience offered
by any school in the world for Professional Household
Staff. |
 |
The staff of Professional Domestic Institute
is continuously evaluating, updating and improving their abilities
and methods in order to meet the demanding and ever changing
needs of today's employers. |
 |
We pride ourselves on offering a wide
variety of curricula, expansive household possessions, up-to-date
equipment for your use, and selected homes in which to perfect
your abilities as well as our new training estate, Carriage
Hill Manor. Your professional consultants and trained instructors
will be sharing a wealth of experience with you. All of this
will provide you with the most comprehensive and educational
experience available, allowing you to create "World
Class Service" for Today's Homes and Families. |
 |
We are the first school of our kind to
offer an Administrative Household Manager/Personal Assistant/Estate
Manager Course, which was initiated 5 years ago and has proven
to be very successful in the experiences it provides our students.
|
 |
We are the first school of our kind to
offer a Home Study Course in addition to training at our Institute.
Our Home Study Course offers the same quality text materials
(up to 2000 pages with photos, DVDs, VHS tapes, textbooks,
etc.) that we use at our State Certified School, for students
that are unable to attend our Institute. |
 |
Our philosophy is unique in that we believe
you cannot successfully supervise staff unless you understand
their responsibilities and can fully instruct them. This also
allows you to hire staff better suited for your employer’s
needs. |
 |
We provide a real-life situation for
you to practice your new skills on—“your employer”
actually lives in the home you care for with all the day-to-day
life experiences, including guests staying overnight, large
and small dinner parties, pet care, contractors and vendors
in and out, construction projects in progress, purchasing
for the estate. |
 |
We don’t train military personnel
with civilians for the following reasons:
- Different learning curve.
- You will work for different types of employers.
- Military personnel serve generals and other high-ranking
officials who don’t live in multi-million dollar
homes and have lots of formal affairs, who don’t
own yachts or private planes, who do not have multiple
homes, and whose homes are not elaborately furnished
- When you work for civilian employers, you may work
for people who are Fortune 500 CEO’s, multi-millionaires,
billionaires, famous individuals, movie stars and the
like, who may have multiple homes that are definitely
elaborately furnished.
- They didn’t have to pay for their training,
so they may not put forth the same type of effort. They
may not have the same motivation to succeed as you do.

We don’t believe that adult individuals
should share bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens (with up to
12+ ) with individuals they do not know, and then attend classes
with them for 8 weeks/24 hours a day. Students attending Professional
Domestic Services stay in private homes or corporate apartments
approximately 10 to 15 minutes from the Institute and Estate.
Many of our students share beautiful two bedroom corporate
apartments in order to save on expenses. Some of these apartments
allow for small pets, have swimming pools and free access
to exercise facilities, have private laundry facilities in
each apartment, etc. |
 |
We limit our classes to no more than
8 individuals so that we can provide better one-on-one instruction
when needed. Because of our successful training methods, all
of our students for the past 3 years have been placed in positions
that they have chosen. |
 |
Upon graduation, we challenge any experienced
professional or graduate from any other program to match your
knowledge! That's how convinced we are about our program,
abilities, staff and consultants. |
 |
Why wait any longer to enjoy your new
career in this growing profession? To improve your current
situation and/or abilities, you are limited only by the restraints
you place on yourself. Most of our students find that the
cost of the program is usually returned to them in their first
year of employment. Our extensive program offers you the ability
to meet your new chosen profession with the confidence
of a "seasoned" professional. |
