How to Handle Complaints
Course Description
Whether you've had a complaint or not, this course is a must! Every Clerk at some point in their career will be faced with dealing with a complaint. This course aims to proactively prepare you with the knowledge, tools and confidence to deal with a complaint sensitively and professionally.

- How to deal with social media rumblings
