Overview
Dealing with complaints is no easy task, especially when they can come from different channels: verbal, social media, emails or letters. Our Writing Effective Written Responses to Complaints in the Police course equips you with the necessary writing skills to help you deal with complaints more efficiently and quickly, in line with your organisation and the public’s expectations.
Through group discussion, practical exercises and individual feedback from Communications Specialist, Sue Calthorpe, you’ll learn valuable skills and techniques to resolve complaints with this one day, interactive course conducted in a supportive environment.
By writing more effective responses to complaints, your organisation can improve its reputation; rebuild trust with victims and general public and avoid escalation of complaints to the Independent Office for Police Conduct.
