New Clacks Academy Courses Over the past couple of months staff have been asked what they would like to see on the Clacks Academy ELearning site. Overwhelmingly, staff voted in favour of two main areas - accessing Microsoft Excel learning packages, and more learning opportunities to do with improving customer service. Responding to the feedback, there is now a new suite of ELearning packages on Microsoft Excel, both at beginner level (great for those with no experience, or looking for a refresh) and at intermediate level. To add to that, a suite of new customer service related MicroLearn ELearning packages have been launched. Taking less than 10 minutes to complete, each of the MicroLearn courses covers a core customer service topic; from telephone and email etiquette, to effective writing and presentation. All the courses launched this month are tablet and mobile compatible, meaning that you can work your learning and development around your own schedule – at work, or at home. Log in to the Clacks Academy via CONNECT now to access these ELearning packages, and be sure to come back regularly to see the new content on offer.
