AUBURN — The Corporate and Community Services department at Central Maine Community College will offer the popular customer service program Give ’em the Pickle on May 30 from 8 a.m. to noon. The cost of the workshop is $85.

Pickles are those special or extra things that can make customers happy. It’s a handwritten thank-you note with every order shipped. It’s walking the customer to the item they’re looking for rather than pointing, or maybe it is simply calling them by name. The trick is figuring out what your customers want and then making sure they get it.

This program helps customer service representatives, store clerks and wait-staff sharpen their customer service skills.

This noncredit course is open to anyone interested in improving the customer service experience for their patrons. Registration for this course is open and ongoing, however space is limited. For more information or to register, please contact Central Maine Community College Corporate and Community Services department at 755-5280 or 800-891-2002, opt. 7; email: [email protected]; or visitwww.cmcc.edu/training.

Deadline for registration is May 23.
