What you will learn

Your curriculum

Week 1: Foundations

Inbound support vs. outbound sales, the AHT/FCR/CSAT/SLA vocabulary, the full anatomy of a call, real empathy and de-escalation, and Zendesk-style ticket documentation.

Week 2: Channel Specialization

Going deep on phone, live chat, and ticket support individually: multi-chat handling, written tone without a voice to carry warmth, and asynchronous research discipline.

Week 3: Difficult Conversations

Billing disputes, refund pushback, and the honest-apology skill of acknowledging an experience without asserting a cause you haven't confirmed.

Week 4: Industry Specialization

E-commerce, subscription and SaaS, telecom, and the extra care regulated industries like healthcare billing and insurance require.

Week 5: Advanced De-Escalation & Boundaries

Genuinely abusive callers, when and how to set a boundary or hand off to a supervisor, and protecting your own composure over a full shift.

Week 6: Ticketing Mastery & Reporting

Real Zendesk/Freshdesk workflow: tags as pattern detection, macros, SLA timers, and reading a QA dashboard the way a supervisor does.

Week 7: Full Simulation

Sustaining a realistic shift's interaction volume across all three channels at once, with the remote-work discipline that comes with it.

Week 8: Final assessment

Written exam, three graded mock interactions across phone and chat, and a practical ticket-documentation task: pass all three to certify.

Week 9: Practicum, part one

Three timed shifts on Harborline Desk, a fictional support company. Items arrive the way they do in a real shift; every action is graded against the rules of the job.

Week 10: Practicum, part two

Three more shifts including a downtime drill, a peer review of another student's work, and a tutor-marked final. Passing needs zero critical errors.

Prepare to participate

Plan for a computer, headset, reliable internet, a quiet practice space, and time for assignments. Review the student handbook for assessment, access, and policy details before payment.
