UNM-LA News:

 

There is still time to enroll in the five-week Customer Service and Relations class being offered at UNM-LA.

The class will be held 10-11:20 a.m. every Monday and Wednesday, Sept. 3 through Oct. 6. Local businesswoman and UNM-LA instructor Laura Loy will teach the course.

“Customer service is a phrase we use regularly, but how often do we think about what actually goes into providing excellent customer service?” Loy said. “Customer service is not just limited to retail or face-to-face businesses. Most people serve customers in their jobs, whether they are external or internal, over the phone, in person, or in written communication.

“At the conclusion of this class, students will be able to recognize who their internal and external customers are, analyze how different personality styles impact customer service and relations, effectively communicate with customers, provide excellent service in a variety of environments, and understand helpful techniques for dealing with difficult customers.”

Loy has worked in business development and marketing for 15 years. She has experience working for both large and small organizations, for-profit and non-profit, and in both business-to-business and business-to-consumer environments.

In addition to teaching in the Business Department at UNM-LA, Loy also is in charge of marketing and communications for the Pajarito Environmental Education Center (PEEC), and she is a local business owner. Loy’s approach to teaching is focused on real-world examples based on her own experience, and providing students with knowledge and skills they can apply to their own lives.

The course can be taken either as a for-credit course for registered students, or through UNM-LA’s Community Education program. The cost to participate through Community Education is $125 for the 10-session course.
