Telephone answering for training centres

If you struggle to answer incoming calls, Best Reception offers a cost-effective and reliable phone answering service for training providers. Concentrate on delivering courses while we manage your important calls.

Training Centers Answering Service

Why do training centres need a phone answering service?

Whether you are an independent trainer, offering training in specific courses, or the manager of a larger training centre, most of your day can be spent away from your office. You may teach courses at various locations, or organise a variety of courses within your premises, and this can monopolise most of your time!

What happens to your calls when you are unavailable to take them? Are your potential new candidates greeted by a voicemail or even unable to get through?

Here at Best Reception we have a large clientele of training centres, each having its own tailor-made service to help improve the running of its business. Whether you simply require a message-taking service, or a fully-functioning outsourced reception to perform administrative tasks and deal with your potential candidates’ questions and queries.

Your virtual receptionist can advise callers on the courses you run, dates and durations, prices, course availability, and even ID required to enroll and license applications when for when they become qualified!

What’s more, we can also carry out any administrative tasks to relieve your workload, such as posting applications, sending out course information and even collecting payments!

I've used Best Reception for around 1 year now. I've found the service superb. My customers comment on how cheerful and professional the call handling is. They are always looking to help and do their job better. How proficient Best Reception is at their job has even helped me from time to time with the extra details noted on conversations by the call handlers. Excellent service and well worth it's money.

I used Best Reception for 2 years during a particularly busy period when my location-based Reception was unable to use Cliniko as I moved away from a paper-based diary. Knowing someone would answer the telephone quickly, reliably and make bookings on my diary accurately while I was busy with patients was reassuring and took a load of stress off me. Any issues that arose were minor, quickly resolved with the team managers, communication was great. Overall I wouldn't hesitate to use them again - great service & good value for money.

Efficient and friendly service. 😊 Edit - 2021 a year later -Best reception continually give an excellent service and have been so supportive during this very difficult year. Also more recently I have had 2 patients in the last week comment what a pleasant receptionist I have - and how friendly helpful and clear she is. Well done best reception staff!
Foot Factor has been working with Best Reception for many years - they are an amazing team, very professional and always ready (and able!) to adapt to regular changes we make in our diary. Our clients appreciate an easy booking service, they're surprised not to find the receptionist at the clinic when they come for their appointment. We appreciate a small, friendly, dedicated team who really know Foot Factor well. Thank you!
