The body’s strategic partnership with customer service associations in Southern Africa, North America, and top international brands is opening frontiers for program and learning exchange of resource professionals and international certification affiliation.

Aside from being honored last year as Africa’s Customer Service icon for 2020 in Eswatini, WAACSP board chairperson Yvonne Ohui MacCarthy is also on the advisory board of the Africa Service Culture Think-tank working on the 2021 Africa conference on service experience billed to hold in October organized by Customer Experience Evolution Africa [CEEA]. The opportunities arising from joining WAACSP at this time are career impacting.

The 2021 service year will also herald the 2021-23 service education curriculum. The basic certification in the customer service program will be expanded while the Advanced Customer Service Program will be introduced in the WAACSP training calendar.

As a result of these, the body will also open its training network to more training partners/organizations as WAACSP affiliate training partners to make service education accessible.

Also, customer service trainers will be recruited into the WAACSP trainers’ network for the 2021-23 training calendar.

The 2021 induction is open to customer service persons of West African origin and there are enriching and career rewarding benefits from being a member.
