What are the level of skills required to be a secretary?
High school graduates who have basic office skills may qualify for entry-level secretarial positions. However, employers increasingly require extensive knowledge of software applications, such as word processing, spreadsheets, and database management.
Secretaries and administrative assistants should be proficient in keyboarding and good at spelling, punctuation, grammar, and oral communication. Employers also look for good customer service and interpersonal skills because secretaries and administrative assistants must be tactful in their dealings with people. Discretion, good judgment, organizational or management ability, initiative, and the ability to work independently are especially important for higher level administrative positions.
As office automation continues to evolve, retraining and continuing education will remain integral parts of secretarial jobs. Changes in the office environment have increased the demand for secretaries and administrative assistants who are adaptable and versatile.
Secretaries and administrative assistants may have to attend classes or participate in online education to learn how to operate new office technologies, such as information storage systems, scanners, the Internet, or new updated software packages. They also may assist in selecting and maintaining office equipment.
Secretaries and administrative assistants acquire skills in various ways. Training ranges from high school vocational education programs that teach office skills and keyboarding to 1- and 2-year programs in office administration offered by business schools, vocational-technical institutes, and community colleges. Many temporary placement agencies also provide formal training in computer and office skills. However, many skills tend to be acquired through on-the-job instruction by other employees or by equipment and software vendors. Specialized training programs are available for students planning to become medical or legal secretaries or administrative technology specialists. Bachelor's degrees and professional certifications are becoming increasingly important as business continues to become more global.
Testing and certification for proficiency in entry-level office skills is available through organizations such as the International Association of Administrative Professionals; National Association of Legal Secretaries (NALS), Inc.; and Legal Secretaries International, Inc. As secretaries and administrative assistants gain experience, they can earn several different designations. Prominent designations include the Certified Professional Secretary (CPS) and the Certified Administrative Professional (CAP), which can be earned by meeting certain experience or educational requirements and passing an examination. Similarly, those with 1 year of experience in the legal field, or who have concluded an approved training course and who want to be certified as a legal support professional, can acquire the Accredited Legal Secretary (ALS) designation through a testing process administered by NALS. NALS offers two additional designations: Professional Legal Secretary (PLS), considered an advanced certification for legal support professionals, and a designation for proficiency as a paralegal. Legal Secretaries International confers the Certified Legal Secretary Specialist (CLSS) designation in areas such as intellectual property, criminal law, civil litigation, probate, and business law to those who have 5 years of legal experience and pass an examination. In some instances, certain requirements may be waived.
Secretaries and administrative assistants generally advance by being promoted to other administrative positions with more responsibilities. Qualified administrative assistants who broaden their knowledge of a company's operations and enhance their skills may be promoted to senior or executive secretary or administrative assistant, clerical supervisor, or office manager. Secretaries with word processing or data entry experience can advance to jobs as word processing or data entry trainers, supervisors, or managers within their own firms or in a secretarial, word processing, or data entry service bureau. Secretarial and administrative support experience also can lead to jobs such as instructor or sales representative with manufacturers of software or computer equipment. With additional training, many legal secretaries become paralegals.

Well box splits are a Lot harder than side splits, box splits is about the stretching in your thighs and your muscles, to do this you must stretch a Lot and go down in box splits as far as you can and sit in it for 10seconds this may occur each day/night you do it.
Or..
Only stretch your legs try lifting your legs as high as you can, maybe start gymnastics and learn from them.
You can't do box splits, I mean learn to do them, it's how flexible and supple you are...
Hope I helped
How tall do you have to be to do gymnastics?
You don't need to be any specific weight. You can do gymnastics if you are fat or if you are skinny. It doesn't really matter. You will find it easier if you are smaller, lighter and can hold your own body weight.

Why are rhythmic gymnasts so skinny?
Many international rhythmic gymnasts are on very, verystrict diets. Another reason is like artistic gymnasts they train very hard from a young age which affects puberty and developement of the body. Artistic gymnasts build more solid muscle that gives them a little bit of bulk, while rhythmic gymnasts focus mostly on stretching and dance, so they don't have as much of the muscle mass that an artistic gymnast who trains for high impact skills would have or need. The ideal body for rhythmic gymnastics is slender and a little more long than for artistic gymnastics.
The reason why people think rhythmic gymnasts are all skinny is because that is all we see. Tiny twig athletes usually make the best rhythmic gymnasts, but not all are.

How can you do a strait arm backward roll?
First of all make sure you can do the regular backward roll peferctly! Then when you start the straight arm backward roll start:
* standing with your feet together * Your chest up
* Arms up with your palms facing the ceiling and turned in (your wrists should make a 90 degree angle) * When you roll back keep your chest up and your arms NEVER leave your ears. They ALWAYS stay up and straight * You have to roll with a lot of momentum to keep it going. IF you have to, practice keeping just one arm straight but don't let them bend. It takes a while to get the hang of it.
If you are talking about the straight arm backward roll for level four be sure NOT to go to handstand making it back extension roll. Judges will deduct quite a bit for going to handstand. So be sure to keep it just a roll!
Is dancing better than gymnastics?
I'd have to say gymnastics, because you can get flexible, strong, and learn how to do flips. in dance you can get flexible and your legs get strong. It will help you with dance a lot.
It also depends on your age and your athletic ability. Both require good stamina and coordination. Most people don't do gymnastics all of their lives. People can dance for many years.
Is a front flip easier than a front handspring?
It's easier to do a back flip. You get more leverage, and you can control you path and landing much, much better.
Well I can do a front flip on the trampoline and I learned when I was six. But I'm trying to do a back flip and it is hard, but I have heard that doing a back flip is SO MUCH EASIER!!
I am a gymnast/freerunner and I'd say a back flip is easier but there more fear but a front flip is harder(you need more height and a faster tuck) but less fear.
You should go on youtube and search for a guy called jujimufu or Epic1 they have helped me a lot these last few years.
It's Harder to do a back flip, most importantly because people have a fear of going backwards.
First do a stretch by laying flat on you stomach, then use your arms to push your chest off the ground. You can do other stretches like the bridge and pretzel. When you feel ready go to a mat or soft surface and start on your knees. You can put your hands two ways:
1. At the front of your body and wrists bent, hands flat.
2. At the sides of your body and hands flat, palms facing forwards.
I suggest trying the first one to start because it helps cushion your roll, but when you are ready try the second one, it works better for most people.
When you are kneeling just roll down to your chest, it might take practice to do this. Then to help push your legs over push hard with your hands. The 2nd hand position works better for this.
Warning- Don't go too far, it could really hurt.
- Try to have control of your legs, you could flips over unexpectedly.
- Wear pants with no button because they can dig into you stomach.
Good luck! Hope I helped.
recursive rule:
term(n+1) = term(n) + (n) also, n starts at 0 and term(1)=3
term(1) = 3 ; (n=0)
term(2) = term(1) + (1) = 4
term(3) = term(2) + (2) = 6
term(4) = term(3) + (3) = 9
term(5) = term(4) + (4) = 13
