HELP! The Institute of Chartered Secretaries Work Placement?

Hey everyone,

My school has just recently organised a work placement for me at the Institute of Chartered Secretaries in London. I don't really have a clue what a chartered secretary is and don't know if it is a well respected profession. I did some research on the net, and it jsut seems as though its a posh name for a secretary. The link to the Institute is:

Do you think this would be a beneficial placement for me, or am i just wasting my time?

Could anyone give me some info? i would really appreciate it.

Thanks
John
