Customer Service Training for Customer Support Specialists
Enhance your Customer Support Specialists customer service skills and sales techniques.

Programme Overview:
Virtual customer service differs from traditional customer service as there are no face-to-face interactions, and thus rely only on digital communication channels. As such, staff need to convey empathy, clarity, and professionalism purely through written or spoken words, making effective communication skills even more critical. Our Customer Service Training for Customer Support Specialists programme is tailored to meet the unique needs of those dealing with customers via Phone, Email, and Live Chat. It is based on our general Customer Service Training programme with a particular focus on virtual communication.
This course is made up of several Bite-Sized topics to help your retail team excel. Within the programme, you customise the programme by selecting the most appropriate Bite-Sized topics to create a programme tailored perfectly to your needs.
