    I learned a lot, this is more beneficial to me or virtually any learner interested in Customer Service Fundamentals than risking to go outside to attend face to face training. I also like participating in giving feedback or answers. It's a smart thing to do for this platform. I am very grateful for Coursera and my sponors for granting me the rare privilege of taking this course. I am very eager to add this to my portfolio or resume for future employment purposes. I am now one step more confident in dealing with the industry. Once again, thank you. I truly enjoyed this learning experience.

    This course has been eye opening. It has equipped me with various skills i did not even know existed. It highlighted the skills that I had but needed improvement. My customer relations was not all that bad but this course showed me that there are so many ways to improve my customer satisfaction. It opened me up to other resources that I had no knowledge which I will from now be using regularly. Its a great course and I highly recommend to all even to those who are not making customer service their career. Business owners will stand to gain a whole lot if they enrol in this course.

    It was a fantastic journey through the entire course. With my background as a biochemist, I never thought about working in customer support and service could be so interesting. Honestly, the skills I learned from this course was way more than I expected from the beginning. The art of communication truly inspired me to practice more with my daily conversations in my workplace. I believe the professional communication skills, multitasking skills and interpersonal soft skills I learned from this course will benefit my career in the long run. Thanks for the great course.

    This course was fun and easy, as it was mostly a refresher for me having worked in Customer Service before on-site and remotely! There are some technical vocabulary words, but nothing too difficult to understand. I highly suggest this course if you want to learn about Customer Service. This course was formerly called "IBM Engagement Specialist Professional Certificate - Customer Service Fundamentals", but now it is "Knowledge Accelerators - Customer Service Fundamentals." It's the same thing, per IBM's website. They just changed the name.

    While the course was aimed toward customer service in relation to a call center there were actually some aspects involving interaction with people I think are useful to keep in mind that could easily apply to customer service and interacting with customers as a whole, such as tone and empathy. Would definitely suggest considering this course to have a better idea of approaching customer service for those unfamiliar with it.

    This professional certificate taught me not only the communication skills of a good call center agent, but also process managing and problem resolution skills, that are essential in many areas, like in decision making and leading people. I recomend this certificate to everyone who want to develop important communication skills allied with a strong analytical formation!

    I've learned so much to be a customer service representative so now I'm heading away to be a worker who can help customers to deal their technical issues or purchasing situations. It was really tough and just I'm good on of being a listener, proof my writing or documentation skills, and just learning more things of being a customer worker.

    This was a solid course that covered a lot of essential information for any customer service specialist. While i would not call this comprehensive by any means, it does hit the core concepts. I would recommend it for people new to customer service but should be very easy if you already have experience.
