Support Supervisor Training & Certification
Frontline supervisory training for support leaders, preparing graduates for the SCP Certified Support Supervisor credential

Unlike generic leadership courses, it incorporates support-specific knowledge and real-world scenarios that frontline supervisors face every day — from coaching agents and managing escalations to building team cohesion and driving performance.
Delivered across 11 modules, the program follows a structured progression: participants begin by developing personal leadership and communication skills, advance through team motivation, coaching, and staffing practices, and conclude with strategies for navigating the critical peer-to-boss transition. Graduates are prepared to sit for the Certified Support Supervisor exam under the globally recognized SCP Career Certification program. The exam fee is included in the course registration.
