Course overview

This new accredited course is intended for learners who have completed our Level 1 Award in Customer Service and want to continue their learning by progressing to a Level 2 Award.  The course would also be suitable if you have achieved a similar level 1 qualification or have relevant vocational experience.

The course will provide useful and relevant learning to help you develop your customer service skills and knowledge whether you already work in customer service or are currently seeking employment.

The course will cover topics including:

  • the characteristics of customers and their expectations
  • customer service practices and procedures
  • legislation and external regulations related to customer service
  • how to deal with customers’ queries, requests and problems

 By successfully completing this course, and by completing a portfolio of work, you will achieve an AIM Qualifications Level 2 Award in Customer Service.

Learners will need to be able to attend at least 80% of the sessions to complete the portfolio and individual tutorials will be offered during the course.

The course is taught in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere in a community venue with an experienced tutor.
