The Reception Workstation Certificate

The Reception Workstation Course

The most important area of any office, regardless of industry, is the reception area.

A poorly designed space can impact everything from staff productivity to how your customers view your company. Cluttered, disorganised and unwelcoming places can deter your clients from returning, which ultimately affects your bottom line.

Learning more about why your reception area should be a major focal point for your business, as well as what you can do to make it a better place, can go a long way to attracting and retaining more customers.

This course goes over everything you need to know about setting up a new reception area or revamping your existing one. We begin by talking about the importance of the role your receptionist plays in your workplace.

Next, we talk about every element of your reception area in detail, letting you know why they are so crucial and what can be done to improve each one.

At the conclusion of this course, you should be able to create a high-impact, efficient workstation.

You Will Learn:

  • How a well-designed reception area ensures your customers always have a positive first impression
  • The kind of atmosphere you should try to create throughout your reception area
  • How to promote productivity within your organisation
  • The specific points you need to consider when designing a reception area
  • Why you should focus on hiring a well-trained receptionist

Anyone who has an interest in learning more about this subject matter is encouraged to take the course. There are no entry requirements to take the course.

The course is broken down into 1 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

You can study the course any time you like. Simply log in and out of the web based course as often as you require. The course is compatible with all computers, tablet devices and smart phones so you can even study while on the move!

Once you have completed all 1 modules there is a multiple choice test. The questions will be on a range of topics found within the 1 modules. The test, like the course, is online and can be taken a time and location of your choosing.

The pass mark for the test is 70%.

If you don’t pass the test first time you will get further opportunities to take the test again after extra study. There are no limits to the number of times you can take the test. All test retakes are included within the price of the course.

You can either use your Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Solo cards or PayPal account to pay for the online course. Our site uses the latest SSL encryption to ensure your safety. All payments are handled securely by PayPal.

You can begin the course immediately after your payment has been received. You will create your login details during the checkout process. We will also send you an email confirming your login details.

We estimate that the course will take about 0.75 hours to complete in total, plus an additional 30 minutes for the end of course test.

Once you have been awarded your certificate it is valid for life. The certificate does not expire or need renewing.

This course is really concise and well written. I am exceptionally pleased with my purchase and I am hoping that I will soon progress towards a job in this industry.

You can complete this all online but you also have the option to save the modules in pdf or print the modules for your records which is great for revision.

Great price and lots of help

I didn't know there is a better way and easiest way to better your personal training and fitness instructor course, till someone told me about fitness diploma course, very useful.

The questions are very relevant , I have just completed my personal trainer and fitness instructor course and passed,I'm over the moon, will do another course soon. I truly recommend this website .

Ballas Mustapha

Very informative and interesting to read. Having it broken down into very manageable sections makes it easy to absorb your new found knowledge.

The course is full of interesting and useful information to know more about garden design and maintenance.

All the modules are easy to understand and gave me strong basics and confidence to start my own garden design business. Also I found the course very interactive, with images to illustrate the modules, garden design plans examples... so I could really visualise what was meant in each module.

Considering the online aspect, I found the website very easy to use and I appreciated the fact that I could keep a trace of my course by downloading the modules on my own laptop.

Laurie Bednarczuk

The course was very well structured and I have a clear idea from all subjects. All the subjects have examples and highlight very important information during the course.

It is suitable for my needs in improving my qualification and doing an online course which transmits all necessary information.

The material is very relevant to the day-to-day activities in a bank and show me how many options I have available inside the bank industry and which qualifications I need. I am very happy with it and I recommend everyone who has some curiosity to learn more about the banking sector.

Diogo Miranda

I really enjoyed the course and would recommend this to my friends.

I completed a City and Guilds Certificate 40 years ago and was looking at bringing my skills up to date. This gave me the encouragement and insight to what I needed to go back into hairdressing. I understand the importance of keeping my skills up to date and would like to study further in styling, hair treatment and colouring.

Thank you very much I enjoyed the 27 modules attached to the course. I particularly enjoyed the videos attached to the course and have always enjoyed putting hair up for special occasions such as weddings.
