The Contact Centre Standards Framework provides industry professionals with a pathway to higher performance and operational excellence.
Leaders can self-assess their competence against the Standards Framework in order to discover gaps in capability with the intention of raising standards in their contact centre. Independent assessment by industry experts will enable impartial analysis, a personalised report with practical recommendations and a highly regarded accreditation.
Pathway to Excellence

Self-assessment – Members can self-assess their competence against the framework. However, this is an internal gauge and won’t lead to accredited certification.
The tool is available to members only. If you are not yet a member, you can find more information on membership here.
