2024 Customer Service Academy
Customer service is one of the most frequently requested training topics as it impacts dramatically on a library's ability to serve its community. This is true in a public library, academic library, special or school library and across all levels of staff. In fact, no one in a library is exempt from providing excellent customer service. To that end, NEO-RLS has constructed an Academy which we hope will inspire you to enhance your customer service skills whether you are new to the library scene or an experienced professional.
There are two options to receive a Customer Service Academy Certificate:
- Attend one of the Day for Public Service Workshops listed below
- Attend 5 of the Customer Service Webinars/Archives listed below and email Melissa Lattanzi when you have completed them.
