Course Overview
Salesforce Service Cloud assists support agents with their daily activities, from collaborating with other agents to logging and resolving cases. In this interactive course, support agents will gain hands-on experience using Service Cloud to share knowledge with each other and with customers, divert cases by creating self-service resources for customers (including knowledge base articles), receive cases through a variety of channels (including CTI and social media), and use a web-based console specifically built for support agents to manage and resolve cases efficiently.
