business workshop
Explanation:
or business process workshop

business division workshop

business activity workshop

maybe even

business department workshop

What is "PA"? - That is the key issue. "Personnel adminstratif"?

Seems to be HR-related.

If "personnel adminstratif" is right, I would say "business department workshop" is a good fit.
