Great customer service

I contacted Learn Direct as I wasn't enjoying the course and they advised me I could choose a different course to swap onto. Jaz, my advisor, was really helpful and professional and I'm now looking forward to starting the new course.

(Perfecta) What made the conversation great was…

What made the conversation great was the approach from Nessrine Marhoum. She showed patience, understanding, and transparency. She communicated the benefits of getting started on the course without coming across as too pushy. She gave me enough time to make my decision and she arranged a follow up call to check on what I have decided in case I needed extra help/information.
