Description

Receiving a complaint can be daunting, especially if things escalate quickly. But there are ways to turn things around. If done right, the original complaint may even earn a great review, renewed loyalty from your customer or service user, and even positive attention on social media channels.

Our Complaints Handling course will ensure you gain new knowledge on handling complaints in the correct way, this will impact your business/workplace in a positive way and will reduce the risk of lost custom.

Throughout the course, examples/ case studies will be included.

You will start the course by being introduced to complaint handling, what a complaint is, the consequences of poor complaint handling and an example of a complaint being handled well and being handled bad.

You will then look at how to handle a complaint in person, on the telephone, via letters, through email or social media and what skills are needed to handle these well.

The course will end by exploring how to investigate and handle customer complaints and how this can benefit the company by reducing the number of complaints you receive in the future.

In order to complete the course, you must achieve 80% or more in the final multiple choice quiz.

You will earn 3 CPD points on completion of the course, this course will take around 3 hours to complete and the certificate will last for two years.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
