Online Call Centre Training

As the very frontline representatives of any brand or business, call centres workers face unique challenges.  The first point of contact and often the only point of contact for so many customers, the call centre employee carries the reputation of the business on their shoulders.  Their actions and performance will therefore directly influence and impact the success or otherwise of the business as a whole.  Just as outstanding call centre teams help build world-class businesses, substandard teams can put the brand’s entire future in jeopardy.

This online call centre training course, has been created for those looking to take existing call centre careers to the next level, or explore a dynamic new career path.  Demand for those with superior-level call-handling skills has never been higher on a global basis. Businesses at all levels are fundamentally dependent on strong customer service teams to both operate and build/maintain strong reputations. Armed with advanced practical call centre skills and theoretical knowledge, successful candidates will find this certificate invaluable in advancing their career prospects.

Over the course of seven modules of this call centre certificate course, candidates are gradually guided through a series of essential communication techniques and strategies.  Along with an overview of identifying customer needs and asking the right questions, course content also explores telesales, creating a script, dealing with difficult customers and how to succeed in telephone negotiations.
