Course Overview

Customer service performance measurement enables organizations to evaluate service quality, monitor operational efficiency, and understand how effectively customer needs are being addressed. Well-defined Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) help service managers identify performance gaps, improve response times, strengthen customer satisfaction, and align service delivery with organizational objectives. This course focuses on selecting, defining, and applying customer service KPIs across service channels and customer interaction processes. Participants explore key metrics such as Customer Satisfaction Score (CSAT), Net Promoter Score (NPS), Customer Effort Score (CES), First Contact Resolution (FCR), Average Handling Time (AHT), response time, service level, and complaint resolution rate. The programme also covers measurement methodologies, target setting, performance dashboards, data interpretation, and the relationship between service quality and operational productivity. Through practical exercises and customer service case studies, participants develop the skills to analyze service performance data, identify recurring service issues, evaluate team and individual performance, and translate measurement results into targeted improvement initiatives. The course emphasizes balanced performance measurement, evidence-based management, and continuous monitoring to improve customer experience while maintaining service efficiency and accountability.
