Customer Experience (CX) is the impression your business leaves with customers at every point of contact and across every stage of their relationship with you. A positive experience builds brand loyalty and affinity, and contributes to your bottom line by creating brand advocates who increase in value over time and evangelize your products and services to others.
Managing the customer experience has emerged as a key strategy to gain competitive advantage in today’s hyper-competitive marketplace, especially in the business-to-consumer sector. In today’s highly competitive business environment, it is no longer enough to deliver ‘good’ customer service.

There are three main course delivery modes at Southern Star Institute: Face-To-Face (F2F), Hybrid and Virtual. A participant can choose the most convenient mode for his training. However, the course structure and fees would vary for each mode. The educational content, however, would be the same but customizations would be made to suit the delivery needs.
Face-to-Face (F2F) Course Delivery
A Face-to-Face (F2F) course is delivered in a classroom setting. This means that scheduled normative hours take place in the physical classroom. F2F classroom interaction takes the form of in-person, real-time interaction between the trainer/facilitator and the participants. A F2F course would be taught for the duration specified for the respective course over a number of days or day as required. The sessions would be divided in the best possible way to effectively structure the course and convey key information to the participants.
Hybrid Course Delivery
A hybrid (or blended) course combines in-class instruction and activities with flexible, guided online learning in a virtual environment. Guided online activities in hybrid courses engage participants with independent, active learning that is supported, performed or submitted via our course learning management process. A hybrid course allows for many possible combinations of in-class and online instruction, interaction and digital learning activities, as well as a wide variety of deliverables.
Virtual Course Delivery
A fully online course is delivered virtually. This means that scheduled normative hours take place outside of a physical classroom. Fully online courses provide participants with flexibility to personalize their schedules as the course teaching and learning activities occur online through the use of our learning management process. Participants complete training, course requirements and collaborate on topics using a wide range of educational technologies and digital learning activities.
