Complaints Handling

Course Aims:

This E-Learning course is to develop your knowledge and understanding of how to handle complaints. You will also explore how complaints can be used to improve services.

The course begins by explaining what a complaint is and what it is not. You will learn how to deal with anonymous complaints.

In stage two, you will learn how to resolve complaints utilising a range of skills including building rapport, active listening and confirming understanding.

Stage three will examine difficult behaviours including the attitude and behaviour of the complainant and unreasonable repeated complaints before exploring how to manage them by drawing on your assertiveness skills.

The course ends with the identification of an individual’s right to complain and what they can do if a complaint to a service provider has not been resolved to their satisfaction.
