Overview/Description
Whether you call your Internet provider because you can't connect to your bank because your online banking password isn't working or your satellite television provider because your signal is poor, chances are all these different calls for completely different things will have at least one thing in common – you'll reach a Service Desk. This is because most IT service providers recognize the value and necessity of a Service Desk for their internal and external customers. Service Desks are an integral point of contact in organizations for addressing IT service-related issues, concerns and questions, and it's essential they are set up properly in order to achieve customer satisfaction and organizational objectives. This course covers the importance and benefits of the Service Desk in an IT service delivery organization, as well as the objectives and responsibilities Service Desks strive to deliver. This course also covers the different Service Desk organizational structures, such as local, centralized, and virtual, and also explores the different considerations, such as the environment that must be addressed when setting up and maintaining a Service Desk. Finally, the course covers the key considerations when staffing a Service Desk such as different roles necessary, skill levels, training considerations, and staff retention.
