It prepares them to succeed in this game-changing industry through a reputable and highly valuable course that is  becoming increasingly recognised by leading employers and participants gain a Professional Certificate from Pearson Business School on successful completion.

What makes Applied Customer Experience & Emotional Intelligence stand out?

Doing away with anecdotes, guesswork and blatant self-promotion, the course is designed with extreme rigour to ensure you can unlock the value of great customer experiences and reap its rewards.

Key learning material is shared with participant seven days before a facilitated Q&A session on Thursday evenings UK time. All sessions are recorded so that you can go at your own speed if you wish.
• These Saturday sessions are optional and attendance on the weekend is not a requirement to complete this course. All sessions are recorded so that you can go at your own speed if you wish.

• Immersive sessions with behavioural scientists and psychologists to really bring it all to life, keeping human behaviour front and centre
• Participants who successfully complete the course gain a Pearson Business School Professional Certificate in Applied Customer Experience and Emotional Intelligence.

Why study Customer Experience and Emotional Intelligence?

Customer Experience is seen as a key priority for CEOs all over the globe. At the same time, there is a widening gap between the high quality of experiences businesses believe they deliver and the low rating customers attach to them – that gap represents a significant growth opportunity for businesses who are willing to invest in customer experience as a sustainable and high-growth business strategy.As customer experience is too often allocated a budget that is disproportionately low compared to its ambitions and importance, the tolerance for underperformance is extremely low, with the average tenure of a Chief Customer Officer being less than 2½* years (*Chief Customer Council, 2017).

In such a challenging context, the last thing you want to do is put your customer-centric role at the mercy of guesswork and anecdotes for the sake of nine-week course – your career deserves so much more: this course has been designed to give you the know-how and confidence to make a sustainable difference!

What’s more you’ll be learning how to adopt the skills of Emotional Intelligence (EI) in your work. Your tutor, Sandra Thompson is the first certified Goleman Emotional Intelligence coach in the UK and she will be taking you through a series of exercises to help you grow your EI.  Sandra will also share the knowledge and experience she has gained from being a student of the Goleman faculty and Dr. Daniel Goleman.
