            The title of the training program is, “Five Steps to Handling Customer Complaints.”

 

Business Strategy (FOCUS: one sentence- generating revenue, containing expenses, complying with regulations)

 

            The business strategy for Tech City is to generate revenue.

 

 

Business Need - WHAT (FOCUS: one sentence stating what the organization needs to do to accomplish that business strategy)

 

            In order to generate more revenue, Tech City must improve its customer service.

 

Business Need – HOW (Explain how this business need accomplishes the Business Need - WHAT? Who gets trained and what training is required?)

 

            Employees need to learn how to address customer complaints.

 

 

 

Transfer of Training - Near or Far and Why

 

            The training will use far transfer of training.  Trainees will learn five steps to use in handling customer complaints, but the application of the five steps will vary contingent upon the customer and situation.

 

Transfer of Training – What Transfer of Training principles will you use in your lesson plan to address your Near or Far Transfer of Training and how? (pages 79 – 83)

 

            This training should result in a positive transfer with increased job performance. The training will utilize identical elements, general principles, stimulus variability and support in the work place.  Identical elements will be applied with in the role plays using scenarios that feature customers with intense customer complaints.   The identical elements will feature psychological fidelity to help ensure that the role plays are similar to what the trainees will encounter in the organization.

 

            The training will include the five steps for customer complaints to be learned as general principles which are fundamental elements in the task. A first step in learning how to constructively address customer complaint is knowing some general principles related to customer service. Those general principles are them applied as relevant in specific situations.

 

            The training will also include stimulus variability.  The role plays will feature a variety of situations that are intended to give a variety of stimuli.  The trainees will learn how to identify the stimuli and explore appropriate responses.

 

            Finally, the training will also include intentional supervisory support.  Supervisors will be involved in the training.  Supervisors will be consulted prior to the training to ensure that necessary adjustments are made to the training to address specific concerns supervisors have with the customer service of their employees.  Supervisors will also be briefed on that the five steps are so that they can follow up with their employees.  Supervisors will also be asked to talk with each employee regarding the five steps within a month of the training.

 

Knowles Adult Learning Principles - Which Adult Learning Principles will you apply to your lesson plan (Page 87 - 89)?  (State which adult learning principles you will apply to your lesson plan and how they will be implemented.)

 

            The training will build upon previous trainee knowledge and experience.  Trainees will be asked to share what they have learned about customer service and customer complaint.  The trainer will also ask for examples when the trainees have encountered customer complaint and the likelihood of subsequent complaint as a means of increasing readiness for learning.

 

Training Objective: State your training objective in one sentence. (It should contain conditions (what are the conditions under which you want them to perform — what is the situation) performance (what you want them to do — observable and measurable) and criteria (the acceptable level of performance).

 

            When an employee encounters a customer complaint, employees will complete all of the five steps to handle customer complaints within one hour.

PPT Session Required

 

Session two will be presented by a power point presentation for unit 4.  The power point presentation will go in depth on the five steps to handling customer complaints.  This includes how to identify a customer complaint, monetary limits to offering a solution and the required documentation process.  This session will provide direction and give the framework needed in order to successfully complete the role-playing exercise in session three. 

Overall the lesson plan will give definition to who is a customer, identify a customer complaint, outline in detail the five steps to handling customer complaints, educate staff on how to document the complaints, and how this process adds value to the organization.  The timeline and sequence of events will serve as building blocks of knowledge and tie back to Tech City’s business need and strategy.  According to Kirkpatrick (2018), “Keep in mind that the purpose of training is to improve on-the-job performance and measurable contribute to key organizational results.”

The training evaluation will include role plays, scenario reviews and an evaluation.  The role plays and the scenario reviews will provide opportunity to observe the trainee’s subject mastery of the material previously covered.  Both the role play and scenario reviews will allow the trainer to coach, encourage and correct.  The evaluation survey at the end of the training will also be a valuable source of feedback.

1.Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Replace hardcoded strings “Zero”, “One”, “Two”, “Three” in the ArrayList based on user typed input (use Scanner or JOptionPane classes). The user will be prompted for the String to be stored in the ArrayList and then hit enter. The user will be able to continue to add items to the ArrayList until they just hit enter without typing anything. Once the user does this (hits enter without typing anything), the program will display all of the elements of the ArrayList, both the index and String values, in a table. It will do this via a single loop making use of an iterator method. 2. Starting with this provided code, add the following functionality: Use a Try/Catch block so that the exception is caught and the program exits a bit more gracefully. Save this file as TryCatch.java.
