Why Study Customer Service?

Today’s consumer expects far more than quality products and affordable prices.  Increasingly, it’s the quality of the customer support provided that determines a brand’s performance.  Research has shown that customers are almost always willing to pay more and wait longer for their needs to be satisfied, if the respective business provides superior customer support.  Worldwide, organisations spanning all sectors are constantly on the lookout for talented customer service agents to represent their businesses.  For qualified candidates, career opportunities in customer support are boundless.

This intensive Level 5 Customer Service Management Course has been designed for ambitious candidates, intent on taking this dynamic profession by storm.  Study the intricacies of customer excellence across 12 insightful modules as follows:

Unit 1. Customer Service: An Introduction

The course begins with a detailed overview of customer service, both as a profession and a wider concept.  The core elements and components of effective customer service are discussed, along with the relationship between a brand’s performance and its commitment to customer care.  A series of common customer service challenges are also introduced.

Unit 2. Strategies for Understanding Your Customers

Module two details the value of getting to know your target audience, detailing how to identify and pre-empt the requirements and expectations of customers.  Customer research techniques are discussed, along with the different types of customer, the concept of segmentation and the potential consequences of failing to adequately understand your audience.

Unit 3. The Customer-Focused Organisation

Candidates then explore the concept of the customer-focused organisation, in reference to businesses that consistently prioritise the customer experience.  Course content covers the development and implementation of a customer service framework, how to effectively monitor the performance of a customer excellence strategy and the role leadership plays in creating a customer-focused working culture.

Unit 4. Creating Customer Service Strategy

Module four continues with a more detailed exploration of the effective customer service strategy, in which candidates study customer service vision and mission-statement establishment.  The importance of clearly-defined goals and objectives is also discussed, along with the business-wide benefits of an efficient customer service strategy.

Unit 5. Customer Services: Implementing a Service Excellence Strategy

Candidates then study the process of introducing both the workforce and the business as a whole to a new service excellence strategy.  Evaluating the effectiveness of an existing customer service strategy is also discussed, alongside the potential value of using a customer excellence strategy as the basis for a marketing campaign.

Unit 6. Advanced Training & Development for Effective Customer Service

Module six focuses on training and development strategies for the individuals and teams on the ‘frontline’ in a customer service setting.  The importance of adequately investing in training and development is discussed, along with the objectives and limitations of employee training, an introduction to effective workforce training strategies and more.

Unit 7. Building Strong Relationship with Customers             

The importance of focusing on customer retention follows in module seven, in which learners study effective techniques for nurturing loyalty.  The financial and reputational value of keeping existing customers happy is discussed, along with the potential consequences of taking a passive approach to customer dissatisfaction.

Unit 8. Effective Communication

Course module eight details the role communication plays in the delivery of superior customer service.  An extensive range of communication tools, materials and training strategies are discussed, along with internal and internal customer communications, how to create an effective communication strategy and more.

The art of effective complaint-handling is explored in chapter 11, which discusses some of the most common types of complaints and the customers who are most likely to voice dissatisfaction.  The importance of promptness in customer relations management is discussed, along with effective strategies for transforming negative experiences into positives for all parties.

Unit 12. Importance of Feedback in Customer Service
