Voiance Language Services, one of the leading Over-the-Phone Interpretation companies in the United States, announces the sponsorship of a study conducted by researchers at the Center for Customer-Driven Quality (founded at Purdue University). The study provides a better understanding of the multi-lingual challenge facing contact centers and best practices for handling non-English speaking callers.

In the study, over 200 contact center managers across the United States were surveyed on the handling of non-English calls; over 80% of respondents supported non-English calls at their contact center. Key findings included: strategies and tactics to manage costs while increasing efficiency; practices across industry segments; key performance metrics to measure non-English calls; in-house/outsource strategies; desired improvements to management information systems.

The study’s findings will be presented in a webinar presentation on April 6, 2010. Webinar registration is free and can be accessed at http://www.voiance.com.
