New Customer Service Qualifications for Hospitality Staff and Managers

14th July 2009

Categories: Training & Skills

People 1st, the Tourism, Leisure and Hospitality sector skills council, has launched two new qualifications for customer service staff.

The first is a level two customer service qualification, designed for front of house staff to raise the quality of their understanding, procedures, attitudes, behaviours and approach.

The second, a level three qualification, is aimed at managers and supervisors of customer service staff to help them improve their performance management, coaching, supervision and motivation of customer facing staff.

Both are recognised, certified, one day courses available from September through your local college or training provider.  Both courses were developed following extensive research with employers who felt that the lack of skills, approach and understanding in these areas was holding their companies back.
