Lots of tips and tricks for dealing with a customer’s request. The role-play exercises are useful for putting them into practice, even though I’m not very comfortable with this sort of exercise.

I found this course to be very lively and dynamic — which isn’t always the case with distance learning. It also offers a wealth of ideas, most of which can be put into practice in a professional setting. As for the DESC method, I’m not sure I’ll be able to apply it.
