What You Will Learn: Participants will learn:
Overview Learn how to lead the call center's most important resource: the professionals that interact directly with customers. This newly updated training course provides contact center supervisors and team leads valuable "how to" best practices for executing day-to-day, tactical job requirements with finesse. With core skills, knowledge, and in-class practice opportunities, participants reach new heights of leadership ability and levels of confidence. The course trains supervisors in essential communication, leadership and coaching skills, and presents best tactics and practices for agent training and development, motivation and retention, team collaboration, performance measurement and management, and self-assessment. Course material is tactical, practical, and immediately applicable. Each participant is put through the paces, with self-assurance and confidence-building as instructional objectives. Hands-on tools, forms, templates, and assessments are utilized in class by attendees under an instructor's supervision. Tools are packaged up for the attendee to take back to the office where newly-acquired skills and methods can be immediately put into practice. This workshop is interactive and involves exercises, group discussion, brainstorming, practice, and the situational application of skills. Students are engaged in the learning process, applying and practicing skills as they are learned. Attendees must demonstrate achievement throughout the learning process, participating in real-world exercises, and may test their mastery following completion of the course by taking the Certified Contact Center Supervisor (CCCS) examination. Deliverables and Take-Home Tools In-class materials and take-home tools include:
Who Should Participate The Certified Contact Center Supervisor training course is ideal for anyone responsible for direct oversight of front-line contact center representatives, analysts, or agents. Some specific roles that will benefit from the class include:
Who Should Not Attend This Course The Certified Contact Center Supervisor course is for professionals whose primary function is day-to-day oversight of front-line customer service representatives. If you are a supervisor with operations management duties such as responsibility for strategy, hiring, designing quality assurance processes, calculating staffing based on service level goals and inbound call volume, acquiring additional capacity or technology to lower average speed of answer and/or abandonment rates, assessing technologies, IVR dialog redesign recommendations, coordinating inter-departmental communications, or reporting results to director- and executive-level management, then this is not the course for you. Professionals with responsibility for contact center operations and performance should attend the Call Center Manager Training and Certification course or the accelerated Contact Center Management Certification Boot Camp, regardless of your job title. Prerequisites Attendees should possess a basic understanding of what a call center is, how calls flow into a center, and basic call center terminology. Agenda The Contact Center Supervisor Certification training program is a two-day, seven-module, non-customized course, readily instructor-adapted to for-profit, government, or the non-profit environment.
