The Benefits of Investing in Call Centre Training

Customer service training doesn’t just improve customer satisfaction—it benefits your employees and bottom line. Here’s why it’s a smart business decision:

Reduced Stress: Agents with the right skills feel more confident, reducing frustration and burnout in high-pressure call centre environments.
Increased Productivity: Well-trained call centre agents handle calls faster, resolve issues more efficiently, and deliver better customer experiences.
Lower Absenteeism: Engaged and skilled agents take up to 10x fewer sick days, reducing reliance on understaffed shifts and overtime.
Reduced Turnover: Replacing a single call centre agent costs over $25,000 in Australia. Training improves retention and job satisfaction.
Higher First Call Resolution (FCR): Trained agents solve customer problems the first time, reducing repeat calls and improving operational efficiency.
Better Call Quality & Compliance: Coaching and best-practice training ensure agents follow scripts, comply with regulations, and maintain high QA scores.
Optimised Call Handling Times (AHT): Efficient agents balance speed and service quality, reducing Average Handling Time (AHT) without compromising CX.
Stronger Customer Loyalty & Satisfaction: Happy customers stay longer, spend more, and are more likely to recommend your brand.

I can’t see a course I like, do you offer customised courses?

Yes! Please contact us to discuss your exact requirements.

Is there a difference between Call Centre Training and Contact Centre Training?

No. Contact Centre is simply a more modern term as most call centres now handle more than just phone calls. Emails, Live Chat, Social Media, Video Chat, SMS and written correspondence are typically all now handled by a contact centre requiring vastly different skill sets than just being able to handle a phone call.

We aren’t a call centre/contact centre so will these courses be suitable?

Unfortunately, the word call centre/contact centre often has a negative perception and many businesses do not identify as having a call centre in their business.

Rather, they have a customer support team, admin team, customer service centre, customer resolutions group, customer management team, customer liaison group and so on.

The good news is whatever name you have for your team, if you have employees who spend time on the phone talking to customers, then yes, all our courses are suitable!
