Overview

The most important area of any office, regardless of industry, is the reception area. A poorly designed space can impact everything from staff productivity to how your customers view your company. Cluttered, disorganised and unwelcoming places can deter your clients from returning, which ultimately affects your bottom line. Learning more about why your reception area should be a major focal point for your business, as well as what you can do to make it a better place, can go a long way to attracting and retaining more customers.

This course goes over everything you need to know about setting up a new reception area or revamping your existing one. We begin by talking about the importance of the role your receptionist plays in your workplace. Next, we talk about every element of your reception area in detail, letting you know why they are so crucial and what can be done to improve each one. At the conclusion of this course, you should be able to create a high-impact, efficient workstation.

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.
