This programme will develop apprentices' skills in delivering high-quality customer experiences in line with a business's brand promise, and help them ensure overall customer satisfaction.
You'll build on your interpersonal, communication and influencing skills to help customers make decisions that benefit them and the business. Other aspects such as personal organisation, presentation, self-development and team working will also be covered to drive service quality and consistency.
Apprentices will develop competence and technical expertise, and assessments will take place via observations on regular assessor workplace visits.
