IT Helpdesk Training Overview

Let’s face it, you’re a technical expert!

You know your stuff, you know the ins and outs about what you are supporting. But what do you know about telephone answering techniques, effective questioning, or how to deal with an irate customer?

Don’t worry help is at hand!

This course is specifically designed to cater for technical professionals who deal with customers and users. You will learn all about customer service, communication, managing customer frustration, increasing customer receptivity to solutions, helping customers explain the real problem, and efficient listening skills.

You will then be able to help your customers the first time that they call and reduce the need for repeat calls that just clog up the helpdesk lines!

Below are indicative IT helpdesk training topics.
