Customer Service 2 (8:00 am - 10:30 am)
Customer Service skills reflect on the individual employee as well as the organization represented by that employee.

Customer Service skills can be learned and improved. This course is designed to highlight important skills and suggest techniques for interacting with customers. Skills will be enhanced through role-play exercises and open discussions. The class is designed to present real-life situations and work through them to optimize the outcomes.
