Effective Business Writing
Though businesses increasingly rely on technology, technological skills alone do not guarantee success in the workplace. You must still develop your ideas, express them clearly, and persuade others of their viability. This course offers effective strategies to sharpen your writing skills by structuring your ideas logically, exercising diplomacy in letters and reports, and shaping your arguments.
In contemporary business environments, information overload makes it necessary for you to communicate clearly and concisely. Trying to make sense of a disorganized email message can be frustrating given the number of emails you have to answer daily. By analyzing your audience, organizing your writing, and employing effective persuasive techniques, your writing will make an impact.
Completion of this course will earn 0.575 CEUs.
Excellence in Customer Service (Advanced)
As a customer service representative, you’re expected to handle every customer that comes your way. To be effective, you need not only knowledge of the products or services your company sells, but also people skills that will help you interact with customers in a positive and professional manner. Your level of product or service knowledge may enable you to understand and resolve problems, but without understanding how to properly interact with customers, you can’t truly serve the customer. In this course, you will apply important principles and skills you can use as a customer service professional.
In addition to providing basic customer service, you’ll also learn important principles and skills you can use to solve difficult and challenging customer interactions, encourage further sales, and take on leadership responsibilities.

Generational Gap: Closing the Generation Gap In The Workplace 2-Hour Class
This is a 2-hour virtual class, and in celebration of our 30th Anniversary, it will be held for $30!
There are currently five generations in the workforce. Only a few short years ago employers who were expecting to be faced with mass retirements are now looking at accommodating workers who cannot
afford to retire or are simply healthy and happy enough they’d like to stay at work. However, the labor force continues to put in hard work and lots of strategy to find the right people to fill vacancies and to be able to serve their customers. This course examines the history and reality of the generation gap, especially for recruiters and succession planning. In it, we will explore whether defining the actual limits of each generation is most important, or whether the merits of people within the context of employment is the bigger issue. After all, understanding others helps us to understand ourselves and to manage the people that we work with. We will also explore problems, solutions, and strategies to help overcome issues of the generation gap.
