What It Measures

The Customer Service Knowledge Challenge measures an individual’s knowledge of customer service best practices across seven key areas. It is a training needs assessment — not a behavioral profile. Use it to identify gaps in knowledge before training, or to evaluate the effectiveness of training after the fact.

Attitude — Customer service personality and mindset
Time Management — Prioritizing and managing customer interactions efficiently
Product / Service Knowledge — Understanding what you are selling or supporting
Developing and Maintaining Rapport — Building lasting customer relationships
Identifying Problems, Needs, and Desires — Understanding what the customer actually needs
Meeting Customer Needs — Delivering solutions that satisfy and retain customers
Order Entry & Follow Through — Accuracy and follow-through on commitments

What the Report Includes

A section-by-section knowledge score across all seven customer service areas.
Positive feedback on areas where the individual demonstrates strong knowledge.

Best Used For

Training needs analysis for customer service teams, pre-training benchmarking, post-training evaluation, and identifying which employees would most benefit from additional development. Note: for screening innate customer service aptitude and personality, the Sales Achiever is the better tool. This assessment measures knowledge, not ability.
