Who it is for

Built for contact centre agents

  • You work, or have worked, in a contact centre

    You already know customers, queues and the systems used on every shift.

  • You are not technical, yet

    That is the starting point. You do not need an IT qualification.

  • You want to break into the industry

    Move into technical roles that run and improve the contact centres of the future.

What you learn

How a modern contact centre works

Calls, chat and messages working together in one system, and where AI fits. The technology behind contact centres needs people who can set it up, watch it and fix it.

Real instructors

Taught live over Google Meet by people from the industry. Not pre-recorded videos.

Hands-on

Build a working cloud contact centre yourself and present it as if to a client.

Industry connections

At the end you are connected with companies and people in the industry.

Why now

Contact centre jobs are being removed

AI is taking over the repetitive work: password resets, balance checks and simple questions. Fewer agents are needed, and companies are closing centres. Learn how the technology works instead of being displaced by it.
