Customer Service Training

Do you impress your customers every time you interact with them? Does your organisation thrive on creating raving fans who buy your products and services again and again?

Customer Service Training Reviews:



Armada Solutions

Trish did a fantastic job with our slightly dysfunctional group. Her background knowledge on neurology and the way the brain works in terms of 'being present' and 'above the line' was GREAT! To be honest I thought this course was going to be dull and bland but experienced the complete opposite, would recommend a training session with Trish anytime!

My Repair Build

Having been to many seminars and courses over the years, it was refreshing to have an overview of the experiences I have gained. I guess the most useful part of the course was the "up-to-date" customer greetings face to face and over the phone. Times change I guess. I enjoyed the interaction with my fellow workers and the chance to have my own input.

Siteminder

It was fantastic to have Jessica come in and train our team. The course was highly appropriate for our customer support centre and I believe each individual benefited from the training provided. Jessica did a fantastic job of engaging each of the staff members and had each of them contribute to the day. She tailored the training to our specific requirements and worked on the fly where needed to get the most out of our team. Ryan has done a great job to sort through any concerns or initial reservations that I had in regards to training and helped pick the right course for our team. Overall a really great experience and I will be recommending follow up courses to my management team in future.

Queensland Vet Specialists

"Richard was absolutely wonderful, he tailored the experience to suit our industry needs and asked questions to clarify if the situation suited us. He was enthusiastic and very personable. He was great!"

"Listening exercises were great for understanding how communication works."

-Queensland Vet Specialists



Independent Schools Victoria

"The trainer managed to 'get everyone on-board' most efficiently. Within a short time, staff were talking to each other and grappling with the way we deal in Customer relations at the College. It was a most successful session."

-Independent Schools Victoria



Spectrum Brands

"I found this course to be really beneficial, not only helpful with my current job but something I could utilise in all aspects of my life - More like a self- help, life coaching/mentoring course - Gave me a bit of perspective. Thoroughly enjoyed course and had me thinking outside my norm."

"I enjoyed the course as it gave me reminders and tips on how to give better customer service. Reactivated my thinking and made me realise some things you just do automatically without even thinking for customers. Loved the section on Five Levels of Focus."

-Spectrum Brands



Parliament of Victoria Department of Parliamentary Services

"The trainer was absolutely fantastic. There was only myself and one other girl which I think made the trainer's job a little easier but the trainer made us feel welcome and comfortable and was very supportive and open to hearing our thoughts, ideas and opinions. I would 110% recommend her and the course she taught to others."

-Parliament of Victoria - Department of Parliamentary Services



Department Of Finance

"Customer service covers much more than I imagined and included a valuable look at team members profile. The co-ordinator created an environment that encouraged participation from everyone which had a positive impact on the team improving respect and cohesion."

-Department Of Finance



Moonee Valley Racing Club

"Most useful part of this course for me was the strategies for helping an upset customer, the cultural differences and on the objective and subjective Language."

-Moonee Valley Racing Club



Fusion 5

"I was very happy with the course and found it very interesting and provided ideas and solutions that I will use in future. Having previously attend an 'in-house' session on customer service, I found this to be far better and the trainer was great!"

-Fusion5 (VIC)

In-House Training - We’ll focus on what matters most to you and tailor to your context


Face-to-Face, Live Online, or Hybrid Class Tailored to Your Needs

When you want a tailored learning experience targeting exactly what you want without bringing everyone physically together, the best choice is a Live Online Class run by PDT.

We tailor the content and activities to be specific to your current needs and the needs of the people and run the course in our usual activity-based workshop style training, however, the participants can all be offsite, or some can be in the room with others offsite.

Unless you have a preferred tools we use 'Zoom for Education' that includes enhanced collaboration features such as One-click content sharing, real-time co-annotation (people can work together in activity files), and digital whiteboarding, we also include things like live polls and group chats so you virtually have the same collaborative learning experience of attending a course in a room with other people.

live online & hybrid

We have delivered these 100's (if not 1000's) of times, and get great outcomes. We achieve great outcomes because we keep our learner centric approach - just because it’s delivered through a screen to some or all participants doesn’t mean it needs to be less tailored or less personalised.

You still have an expert trainer who talks to you prior to the session and tailors the delivery to use your terminology, ensure activities are relevant and directly applicable and ensures an engaging learning experience that provide people with skills and techniques they can apply the very next day.

A hybrid class is with some people connecting online, and some people physically together in the same room.
