About Boost Academy of Excellence
Elevating Professional Impact Through Modern Etiquette and
Communication Training
Who We Are
At Boost Academy of Excellence, we turn everyday professionals into extraordinary ones.
In today’s hybrid, multigenerational workplace, technical skills will get you in the door – but professional presence, communication, and business etiquette are what get you promoted, respected, and remembered. That’s the gap we exist to close.
Founded by Trina Boos – entrepreneur, talent development expert, and connector in the marketing, creative, and digital industries – Boost Academy of Excellence was built on a simple belief: the unwritten rules of professional success matter just as much as the ones on your résumé.
Trained by the prestigious Emily Post Institute, we bring a gold standard of credibility to everything we do. Through corporate workshops, seminars, individual and group coaching, and live online courses, we equip professionals with the practical tools to build stronger relationships, communicate with confidence, and show up with the kind of presence that leaves a lasting impression.
Over the past several years, the workplace has undergone a dramatic transformation. Remote onboarding, hybrid teams, and asynchronous communication have created real gaps in the social skills and business etiquette that were once the foundation of professional success. We step in to bridge that gap – helping individuals and organizations foster a culture of respect, civility, and confidence in every interaction.
Whether you’re an emerging professional navigating your first boardroom, a mid-level leader looking to sharpen your executive presence, or an organization investing in your people, Boost Academy of Excellence gives you the tools to thrive – not just at work, but in every room you walk into.
