Article : Training Methods From Around the World

We asked training professionals from around the world to tell us the methods they use to train new recruits and turn them into successful agents. The answers are varied, and point to the different techniques used to create better representatives.

Forrest Mckeiver
Training Specialist
Careerbuilder
United States

"Primarily I conduct classroom setting trainings however, with recent downsizing we are beginning to do more eLearning modules. This allows us to communicate the same message but doesn't require us to impact service levels because agents can complete the training at their desk. I value the face to face interaction above all but we are finding the eLearning modules to be impactful with the appropriate follow-up."

Jacqueline Austin
Learning & Development Trainer
Cyprus

"Instigate classroom training, self learn, one 2 one sessions as required. Success depends on the type of training being conducted and the recipeint. For example a Japanese staff memebr is more likely to benefit from perdsonal coaching. Motivational training works best when conducted in groups as the energy generated encourages all."

 
Terry Follmer
Trainer
United States

"Classroom, instructor-led is the norm here, most delivered by the QA/Training staff and some (little) by supervisors and leads. I have developed and introduced several self-paced, web-delivered modules to good reviews. Level 2 post tests (cognitive, knowledge testing only so far) have shown training gaps to be corrected, resource/documentation gaps, and other resource issues to enable the agents both while learning and on the job. The strategy is to develop more self-paced modules with new products and technologies being introduced, followed by classroom and 1:1 reviews as needed. The infrastructure here includes a continuously updated Wiki with technical content provided by subject matter experts, and instead of duplicating that content in training, I seek to design training that directs the learners to use the existing documentation. This requires minimal training redesign to sustain the programs, with more focus on keeping practice and testing current than on actual content development."

 
Brian Smith
Manager - Customer Support and Training
20-20 Technologies
United States

"Agent training at 20-20 is an on-going process, however the initial training lasts about 3-6 weeks, depending on the skill level of the agent being trained. Typically, we have the agent sit in on actual customer training sessions (in-person or on-line) to better understand our end-user's needs and workflow. In between these trainings, they will sit with other agents taking calls, listening into and taking notes on how the cusotmer responds and how we respond to them. After the initial training period, I can't stress enough how important ON-GOING training on new or even lesser-known parts of the software. We even like to give enough information on our competition so that when questions arise from customers we can quickly address them. 20-20 also strongly believes that internal cross-training in other areas of the company is a critical part of life here and is even measured on annual PMPs."
