Contact Center Excellence - Speaking the Language

Overview

Modern contact centers can be overwhelming for the uninitiated. Handling dozens (or thousands, or millions) of calls, emails, and chats is challenging enough all by itself. Then on top of that you'll be bombarded with terms like “service level” and “handle time” and conversations about how to balance occupancy correctly to avoid burnout and how to reduce your ASA without compromising service quality and how to cope with shrinkage and maintain adherence and what does all this stuff mean anyway?????

That's where Contact Center Excellence - Speaking the Language comes in. Designed for everyone from entry-level employees to rising stars and new managers, this video-based training series will help you understand all the most important concepts and metrics necessary to ensure that your experience in the contact center universe is as smooth and enjoyable as possible. From learning how to determine a realistic service level to understanding key workforce management principles, Speaking the Contact Center Language will make sure you know how to think and act like a true contact center professional.
