Telephone Customer Services Certification

Telephone Customer Services Certification

A customer's experience of telephone-based service goes a long way in shaping their opinion of an organisation.

Call centre and office staff are the first and often only point of contact, so their telephone manner must be professional and customer-centred.

This course will give you lots of practical strategies that will help you and your team identify customers' needs and offer them appropriate solutions.

You will also learn how and why taking a proactive or pre-emptive approach to customer service will yield better outcomes than merely reacting to complaints or difficulties.

  • Eleven practical ways to improve your communication skills, understand your customer's needs and arrive at a mutually satisfactory solution
  • The advantages and disadvantages of telephone-based customer service

Benefits of Taking This Course:

  • You will learn how to engage with customers and help resolve their problems, thereby improving your company's image and widening your customer base
  • If you train or supervise workers who deal with customers over the telephone, this course will give you a framework for imparting practical advice for offering great customer service
  • If you are a business owner, this course will help you consider whether telephone-based customer service is the right choice for your business
  • The principles of good communication contained in this course are transferable to other situations, such as face-to-face customer service or sales negotiations

The course is broken down into 2 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

I use Sage 50 every day at work, but wanted a qualification on my CV to reflect this. I thought this course was well set out and very informative.

I really appreciated that the course is split into 10 modules as this made it very easy for me to stop and come back to when convenient. I found with work and 4 kids this was very helpful and with a good feature that it saved the place where I was so you could return at any time.

I must admit I was very surprised that I learnt new things and really glad I took the course. I would recommend this course to anyone thinking of using Sage for the first time or like me already use it daily. I really appreciated the fact that I used my tablet while taking the course.

I must be honest at 36 years old, this was my first course taken online, I was generally really surprised how easy to it was to order/book on line. Overall I felt this was a very positive experience for me I not only gained a qualification, I also gained confidence and have now book up 2 more courses.

Amazing! New Skills Academy has helped me shape my life and improve my understanding of my chosen course, so simply and now I am that one step closer to achieving my goal. Such a simple yet professional system and easy to learn from.

Would and will recommend to friends and family. A great way to learn without the price tag of going to University and saves a lot of time. Super easy to set up. 5 Star rating throughout the whole experience.

Going to buy my sister the same course for a birthday gift, which is a great offer that they do.

This course was very easy to follow. Any assistance needed was quickly and professionally sorted.
The modules were great. I am a complete novice in this area of studying but was able to follow each module at my own pace and review.
Thoroughly recommend this to any seeking employment in this area. You get a recognised certificate at the end!
What is also useful is you can revisit modules and refer back to even after the course.
There is an exam at the end which was quite hard but it ensures you have read each module carefully ,so you fully understand.
This course is a must for anyone wanting to undertake Admin or PA work.
I passed and can now apply for this type of work with confidence!!
In one word 'Fantastic!'

I've just completed the Level 3 Admin & PA Diploma!

I found the course informative and user friendly to navigate. I had the chance to refresh the skills I already possessed and it introduced me to new ideas and information. It was a good opportunity for me to update my skill set.

A very useful course with the topics very well presented and easy to read and follow. I was able to easily slot the course into my schedule and enjoyed setting time aside to work my way through. I would definitely recommend this course to those wishing to learn something new and for those wishing to sharpen up on previous knowledge.

My course was the Pet Sitting and Dog Walking course. It is quite an interesting course! It was perfect to learn, and this what I was looking for.

Easy and clear to understand with many helpful pictures, very helpful extra information, very informative. I really enjoyed studying this course. For me it was fun ? I studied when I have had time, which is great for me in addition to my current job.

I hope I can start soon my new career with my newly learned skills. I am so excited. Fully accredited course which is important for me. I will definitely recommend New Skills Academy!

Tamas Fekete

A good course that covers all the basics and will leave you confident and equipped to deal with any emergencies as they arise, from basic equipment needed, to how to do CPR on your dog or cat, to administering medicines and dealing with burns, breaks and drownings. It gave me a lot of tips and pointers to explore the issues further as well as first aid equipment to buy. Providing you read through all of the modules, you'll be able to pass the course quite easily. Good value for money for what I paid for this course. Well worth the few hours needed.
