  1. It's the Royal Society of Arts & Manufactories.  The exams were set up by them as an alternative to academic exams.  Many people didn't get to do academic stuff and had to leave school as soon as possible, so the RSA exams were to encourage them to achieve.  I still have mine from the mid-60s in Typing, Shorthand, Maths and English.


  2. I think ANNE B is correct - RSA do other types of qualifications, not just secretarial.  

  3. Royal Society Of Arts  

  4. I am sure the S is secretarial and A is academy
