Overview

Poorly trained agents are a huge hidden cost. Poor treatment of customers and the inability to complete tasks quickly are both a result of inadequate or misguided training. If CRM is in your future, be sure you have a system in place that can handle your call center's changing training needs.

In this seminar, you will learn how to quickly retrain and refocus your agents for better performance. You will master techniques that will allow you to add new applications, customer groups, products, and processes without worrying about how it will affect the agents and the call center's performance.

You will learn how to:

  • Develop a training system that quickly produces capable agents
  • Understand what preparations are needed to ensure a well-trained workforce
  • Gain a new appreciation of the secondary benefits of having a formal training system
  • Develop critical knowledgebases for key jobs
  • Communicate the objectives and purposes behind changes
  • Design polices that help keep good people
