Customer Service Skills: Descriptions and Excerpts of Online Courses from the 2007 Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning Awards

 

How Organizations
Put Customers First

Gaining customers for your products and services is hard. Keeping them as satisfied customers is even harder. Consumers have so many product and service choices now that they'll quickly abandon a company if the quality of its customer service is lacking. Consequently, customer service training has never been more important.

"Customer Service Skills: Descriptions and Excerpts of Online Courses from the 2007 Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning Awards" provides nine case studies and online excerpts of customer service courses submitted to the 2007 Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning Awards.

Designed for anyone involved in creating training — subject matter experts, instructional designers, authors, graphic designers, and training and project managers — this report provides a glimpse into how leading organizations such as GE Energy, Toyoto, PNC Bank, and Saks Fifth Avenue train their new employees.

This report contains the following:

  • A description of the 2007 Brandon Hall Research Excellence in Learning Awards, including methodology and judging criteria
  • Case studies of nine Custom Content category entries that focus on customer service training (Two of these entries were Award winners in 2007.)

Each of the nine case studies contains the following:

  • A screen capture
  • A link to view an online recording of the course
  • Information about the tools, budget, and staffing required to create the course
  • Comments from the Excellence in Learning Awards Judges assigned to evaluate the course

Customer Service Skills: Descriptions and Excerpts of Online Courses from the 2007 Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning Awards is designed to give you a look inside the tools used and processes followed by professional development teams to design smarter and more innovative e-learning courses. Most importantly, this report is designed to provide you with ideas on how you can improve the quality of customer service training within your organization.
