"Through the Customer's Eyes" Learn More!
Self-Paced Training and Certification for Frontline Customer Service Professionals

"I learned about the 'Through the Customer’s Eyes' program at the ICSA conference in fall of 2002. We made it one of our objectives for the year to have each rep certified. We scheduled each rep time off the phone to complete their modules. It was an exciting time as you would hear the reps discussing the latest module and how they could relate to the experience they learned on each module. Several reps would email their weekend experiences while they were the customer and how they were treated. They also would discuss how they were being treated as a customer while contacting vendors that we do business with. It was quite evident that the reps enjoyed and learned from this program." - Ellen Sofie, Customer Service Manager, Cardinal Health, Medical Products and Services
