Event Information

Instilling a culture of service excellence at all levels of an institution is more important than ever. It creates a sense of community amongst faculty, staff, and students, which makes your campus a great place to be.

Whether you’re a frontline staff member wanting to make a positive difference with customers directly or a team leader trying to change the service culture in your unit, you’ll benefit from this conference as you:

  • Learn how to conduct “Servicescape” Audits, so that you can better measure and assess your customer service culture.
