Service Experience Essentials Course Introduction

New course for 2024!

The Service Experience Essentials course is a short (3-hour) course designed to instill a customer-first mindset in all of your employees, whether they are on the frontline working directly with customers or ‘behind the scenes’ in admin, on the road, warehouse, finance, marketing, human resources etc.

As whilst it is often a focus for customer service employees, the truth is that everyone in your business needs to have a customer-first mindset, whether they are dealing with internal or external customers.

This course first explains why customer service and the broader customer experience are critical for business success and then teaches your employees real-world, practical skills that can be implemented immediately following the session.

The course goes beyond traditional customer service training clichés such as ‘always have a smile in your voice’ and ‘use the customer’s name 2 or 3 times in a call’.

This program has been three decades in the making and is based on the Australian Customer Experience Professionals Association (ACXPA) Quality Standards, leveraging the insights and assessment of more than 50,000 customer interactions to identify the five core competencies and 18 behaviours directly linked to positively impacting the customer experience.

Your employees will learn some best-practice techniques to improve customer service over the phone, in writing/emails and how to handle difficult customer situations – all designed to enable your employees to have better customer conversations to improve business outcomes.

In short, this course is designed to ‘shift the dial’ on putting customers first in your business and empower attendees with the knowledge and skills on how to do it!

Daniel's expertise and passion for the subject matter truly shine through in his teaching style, making it a transformative experience for all participants.From the moment the workshop began, Daniel's enthusiasm was infectious. He has an exceptional ability to convey complex concepts in an understandable and relatable way.

Throughout the session, he encouraged active participation and created an inclusive atmosphere where questions and discussions were not just welcome but encouraged. It's evident that he genuinely cares about each participant's learning journey.The real-world examples and practical strategies shared during the workshop were invaluable. Daniel's ability to connect theory to practical application made the content highly relevant and actionable.The workshop was impeccably organized, and Daniel's presentation skills were top-notch. He kept the audience engaged and motivated throughout, making the entire experience enjoyable and enlightening.In conclusion, I cannot recommend Daniel Ord's workshops enough. If you're looking to enhance your skills in managing difficult situations, he is the go-to expert. Thank you, Daniel, for an enriching and eye-opening workshop.

Great Contact Centre Management course. The trainer, Daniel well explained how contact centres works and this is exactly what I needed for my role.

Training with CX Skills is always engaging and worth every cent. The team are helpful and the lessons are practical and easy to translate into the workplace.
Response from the owner: Thanks Sheree for taking the time to leave us a review and glad you enjoyed the course!
Attended the Introduction to Contact Centre Management course – found it extremely informative and left with a much better understanding of the world I'm about to step into! The course was well structured and Justin was a great teacher. His wealth of knowledge (and passion) absolutely shone through. Am keen to learn more!
Response from the owner: Thanks Keira, was great to meet you on the course and I wish you all the best with the new adventure and hearing about your progress! - Justin
I did the management of contact centres four day workshop, it was fantastic! The facilitator was really engaging and explained everything from WFM to forecasting in a easy to understand manner. Highly recommend to anyone working in a contact centre environment!
Response from the owner: Awesome Jamie, thanks for taking the time to leave a review. Daniel is certainly very knowledgeable and passionate about contact centres so thrilled to hear you got a lot out of the course. We really do believe if there was one course any call centre Team Leader or Manager should attend in their career this would be it!
I had a fantastic learning experience with the half day Journey Mapping course. Shane was our trainer and explained things thoroughly, used great practical examples and helped through the exercise when needed. He was very knowledgeable and engaging. The group size was not too big so everyone was able to contribute online. I feel confident to 'give a journey map a go' now, thank you. Helen
Response from the owner: Thanks Helen, so great to hear. Journey Maps can often feel a bit daunting but when they are explained well and supported with some great examples it does give people the confidence they need to get cracking!
The Introduction to Contact Centre Management is an excellent course for those looking to understand contact centres from a helicopter view and benchmark their operations. From the fundamental pillars to critical KPIs and performance metrics that underpin almost every contact centre globally, Justin is personable and professional and speaks with authority on a topic he knows intimately.
Response from the owner: Thanks Jim for taking the time to provide a wonderful review. It was a pleasure having you and the team on the course. You've got a great team behind you so I look forward to hearing about your successes in the future as you roll out some of the new initiatives. - Justin

Response from the owner: Thanks Sam, was great to meet you on the Introduction to Contact Centre Managers course! Looking forward to staying connected and hearing about future successes with your career.
Response from the owner: Thanks Dirk for attending the Introduction to Contact Centre Managers course. Good luck with your new business venture!
We have done a few training courses now through Justin and the CX Group.In these sessions the facilitator has been Dan Ord and Dans knowledge of the Contact Centre world is second to none. This was great for us as we attended as a team to ensure that the training that we received was able to be applied across my entire management team and also allowed me to drive the right outcomes based on Dan, Marcus and Justins advice and guidance.The best thing about this is that this was not one of those courses that you attend and then nothing more is said or done with this. . . Dan/Justin offer their email address so if you come up with additional questions later that you want guidance on you can ask and they are more than willing to assist.Dan, Marcus and Justin thanks for facilitating this training and we will sure be intouch for other training courses that we would like to run through the CX Group.Bec Goss
Response from the owner: Wow, thanks Bec! It's been great to spend some time with the Digicall Assist team and it's been our pleasure in helping you to continue your focus on upping the game for your customers!
This course is absolutely fundamental to anyone dealing with customer experience, the customer journey and also customer service departments. The course is packed with real life examples illustrating the 6 pillars of customer experience! Dan shares all his knowledge and expertise freely and with great love and enthusiasm for the subject matter!
Response from the owner: Thanks Marianne, was lovely to have your input and experience in the group. Dan is certainly very passionate about CX (and also with contact centres like you!) and I think you're spot on, the examples Daniel uses really does bring the course to life and make the learnings stick!
The CX Management Fundamentals course was exceptional, a balanced blend of best in-class examples and theory . Daniel was the utmost professional, sharing his wealth of knowledge in customer experience and contact centre management. Content was relevant and covered an array of business examples. A course that exemplifies two-way participation (no death by PowerPoint). The diverse group of attendees had the opportunity to share their experiences and knowledge, which was priceless. I highly recommend this course for anyone in the customer experience realm, even beginners like me.
Response from the owner: Thanks Rachael for your lovely review and for your input throughout the course. You're right, the combination of Daniel's training and learning from others is a great way to learn and build your network - you've now got some new CX friends from the UK, Malaysia, Germany, Budapest and the USA!
I learnt a lot about CX and the course gave me clarity on the 6 main competencies. The training was fun, enjoyable, I can recommend to anyone who is passionate about the "Customer" subject. Daniel is very knowledgeable and experienced, he used real life business examples to understand both the strategic and tactical elements of CX. He also involved us which generated even more credibility.
Response from the owner: Thanks Eva for your review and recommendation! We are thrilled you enjoyed the class (even though the time zones made it a bit more challenging for you in Budapest) and we are here to help when you take the next step and sit for the CCXP exam 🙂
I could not recommend this Company highly enough, I have now done two courses with the Fantastic Dan & Marcus and have taken so much away. I want to thank everybody involved with CX Skills.
Response from the owner: Thanks Rory, appreciate you taking the time to send us in a review!
Game-changing training and insight. Highly recommend CX Skills training program.
Response from the owner: Thanks so much Lee, your marketing insights also added a lot of value to the group and wish you all the best in implementing your new Quality program into the contact centre.
An absolutely fun and engaging learning session presented by Daniel. Would definitely recommend.
Response from the owner: Thanks Vanessa, so glad you could join us on the How to Design a QA program for contact centres and best of luck with the implementation!
Another great course put together by Justin presented by their partners at Omnitouch, Daniel and Marcus.The "How to Design a Quality Assurance Program for Contact Centres" was extremely fitting for our organisation as we transition to a new telephony system.The course was not one of those courses where they give you the answer and a few templates sending you on your way. Daniel and Marcus take you through why an appropriate framework should take into consideration the Organisations, Mission Statement, Values and Customer Service Charter.As the session was run via Zoom, it enabled and encouraged networking opportunities not only across Australia but also with International attendees. This was a fantastic benefit as it allowed us to draw on each others lived experiences.I really encourage you all to check out the courses and information that CX Skills has to offer as they are the best place to not only continue but to also start your learning and development!
Response from the owner: Thanks Adrian, really appreciate your detailed review. Having already completed our Contact Centre Management Fundamentals course a couple of months ago it was great to have you back for this course! The QA course is certainly one of our favourites as having the right framework in place really drives everything you do in your contact centre. And as you have pointed out, just handing out a scorecard and saying 'use this' rarely works. Defining what quality is to your business is the key, and then having the right frameworks in place to ensure you drive it delivers sustainable results so we look forward to hearing your progress as you implement your program!
Justin and the team at CX Skills have gone over and above the call of duty to deliver great Customer Service training to our entire Service Centre team. The training has been high quality, delivered remotely, and Justin has been extremely flexible with necessary changes to attendees due to operational requirements. I highly recommend CX Skills to assist with your training needs.
Response from the owner: Thanks Monica for the wonderful review. It's been a pleasure working with yourself, Todd and all of your wonderful staff in delivering our Managing Difficult Customers course to your entire team.
The training provided manages to take complex sales strategies and make them easy to understand and implicate in a sales call. It provides a structure that isn’t stifled by wordy scripts and pitches, and guides consultants towards a successful outcome for both the customer and consultant.This training took efficient, tried and tested sales concepts and expand on them to not only generate higher conversion, but a more positive customer experience.Aside from the training, which was amazing, Simon - the trainer - was a pleasure to work with. He was attentive and showed a real passion and desire to enhance the trainee’s sales expertise.I would recommend CX Group to anyone who will listen!
Response from the owner: Thanks Chris for your great review and so pleased you enjoyed the Inbound Sales Professional course with Simon. And we agree, once you've learnt the structure it makes sales a much more effective and enjoyable process!
I recently attended the Contact Centre Management Fundamentals course and found it extremely useful and relevant. Daniel was extremely knowledgeable on all topics and handled questions with ease. He was a great trainer and i found the session had a great mix to suit all learning styles. I have taken so much from this course, the networking opportunities as well as the CX website and associated resources. I highly recommend attending if you are looking to better understand contact centre management regardless of what level you work at.
Response from the owner: Thanks Nicole for your wonderful review! It was great to meet you on the course and I look forward to hearing about your future successes.
Thank you team-It has certainly changed the whole perspective on how I used to see and handle the issues not just at the workplace but also in day to day life. Very practical and informative course content delivered in a very professional way. I truely recomend everyone out there to use this platform.
Response from the owner: Thank you Badri. So great to hear you loved the Managing Difficult Customers course and that the learnings have helped you in both your work and personal life!
Justin created a great call centre fundamentals program for our organisation, based on the skill gaps needed filling. Although it was at the height of the Melbourne lockdown the session was still interactive, interesting and achieved the desired result.
Response from the owner: Thanks Sarsha, was great to meet you and the team and I wish you all the best on your customer experience and call centre journey!
Really enjoyed course on handling difficult customers. I came away with a number of tools that I can use not only with customers, but also day to day life.
Response from the owner: Thanks Katherine, we loved having you on the course and thanks for sharing some of your interesting stories and examples!
Response from the owner: Thanks Linda, great to have you in our course!
Justin from CX responded promptly to my training enquiry. He heard what we wanted and we discussed best way to present this during Melbourne Lockdown. He conducted the introduction to contact centre leadership remotely with a small group. He weaved his contact centre experience with humour and activities that were appropriate and engaging. At the end each person agreed that they learnt lots and were going to apply at least one thing back in their role. I would highly recommend CX and Justin for training and support.
Response from the owner: Thanks Kaylee, it was a pleasure to spend some time with the team and I'm sure with that level of enthusiasm and passion your contact centre will be in good hands for the future!

Common FAQs

What are the minimum numbers required?

We require a minimum of six employees per session. If you have fewer numbers, we encourage you to view one of our alternative upcoming public courses, where you can purchase as little as one ticket.

What dates and times can the training be conducted?

We’ll work with you to find the most suitable time to minimise the impact on your business.

Want a morning session? Out of business hours? Only on Wednesdays? Whatever your requirements, we’ll do our best to accommodate!

Online/virtual sessions provide the most flexibility as we don’t need to allow for travel time to and from your business.

What is the maximum number of employees per session?

Typically, we aim to keep group sizes to under 14 to ensure the best training experience.

What is the maximum number of employees you can train?

The course is designed to train all your employees in your business whether they work directly with customers, are in the office, on the road etc. To date, the largest number of employees we have trained for one business is just over 350 (across approx 25 different sessions).

For onsite training, can you do multiple sessions in one day?

Yes, we find most businesses aim for an AM and PM session to minimise business disruption.

What are the costs for onsite training?

Currently, both our trainers are based in Melbourne, so we need to allow for travel time to and from your workplace. For interstate bookings, if it’s only one session, we’d suggest online/virtual would be a more cost-effective alternative.

However, if you have a larger number of employees who would like to complete the training, we’ll work with you to make it an attractive proposition.

Can we include our own products/services/scenarios in the training?

Our trainers are skilled at enabling your employees to talk about their experiences during training. However, we can also customise the training to incorporate specific examples if required.
