I really enjoyed this course
Hi everyone, I wanted to let you know that before I used to apply for a vacancy I was not confident about my CV. To strengthen my confidence I decided to do the Customer Service Certification with New Skills. I have completed the course and now I am very happy. Thank you so much to all the team who provided me the easy access to the course.
Nadir Zekouki
I would recommend it to anyone working in HR or looking to get into HR
Easy to use! Fantastic! It has massively helped me whilst I have been working in Human Resources. I couldn't ask for anything better. I can't wait to start another course with you!
Definitely worth every penny and I would highly recommend it. I was also able to brush up on my excel knowledge too which is really imperative in my role. Before I started the course I had little knowledge on how to use Excel. I am now an Excel wiz!
In summary, fantastic course I would recommend it to anyone working in HR or looking to get into HR

I definitely recommend this course to everyone
I really enjoyed this course because I was able to study at anytime and anywhere from my phone, when my little daughter was sleeping. I like working with people and this course offered me more knowledge about the best way to treat a customer.
This certification will help me get a better job in the future. After each module there is a short test and at the end of the course there is another overall longer test so it's best to read and understand each module properly.
I definitely recommend this course to everyone who wants to improve their customer service skills.
Lavinia Poara
I would certainly recommend it!
I really enjoyed this course. Although I already work in customer services, I found it very informative and I picked up a lot of useful information and tips. What I liked about the course was that it was something you could do at your own pace and it was easy to follow.
It made me feel more relaxed about my studying and put me at ease when it came to the final test at the end. The modules were just the right length, with plenty of content to get your teeth into but not too much that it became overwhelming, and that made it better to learn and digest what was being said.
I would certainly recommend it!
Stephen Rawlinson
Thank you for such a positive and rewarding experience
I am over the moon with my experience in completing my first online course with New Skills Academy. I found the whole process quick and efficient and the site very easy to navigate. I found it helpful to complete short tests at the end of each module as I feel this helps to review the information I have read and confirm that I understood it and could retain the information as well.
I found the course to be very well written and the information provided to be interesting and relevant to the course and the final test to be efficient in recapping everything I had learned throughout the course. I completed the course quite quickly and was able to study using my iPhone as the course was iOS compatible which I found to be the best way of accessing the course, information and tests.
I'm thrilled that I passed my first course and can't wait to get started on the next one. Thank you for such a positive and rewarding experience.
