Customer Service Phone Professionals (June 2023) Training Course

Do you need to improve the customer service skills of your frontline employees?

Our June 2023 Customer Service Phone Professionals training course is designed to provide students with advanced customer service skills to deliver superior phone experiences day after day, call after call.

Delivered over 3 x 3-hour sessions (total of 9 hours) to minimise the impact on your operations, we’ll teach a structured, yet natural approach (no scripts!) that encourages staff to be themselves and engage with empathy.

Your staff will be coached to progressively learn, build and apply new habits and skills that will transform their psychology and performance to positively impact your customers and business like never before.

First Contact Resolution, Customer Satisfaction, Net Promoter Score, Call Quality and Employee Engagement are all positively impacted through learning how to be both more efficient and more effective in each customer interaction.

This course isn’t just basic platitudes like ‘smile’ when you are on a call. This course has been developed and refined over three decades and leverages the insights and assessment of more than 50,000 phone calls to ensure it delivers more than just theory, it delivers results!

9 hours of training delivered over 3 x 3-Hour Sessions 

The Customer Service Phone Professional public course is a 9-hour course spaced out over 3 x 3-hour sessions enabling students time to learn and apply their new skills in between each session and minimise the impact of off-phone learning.

Private courses can also be delivered (just for your employees) that also enable greater flexibility with the dates, times and duration of the course (e.g. we could deliver it over 2 x 4.5 hour sessions or a single full day session) – contact us for further information.
