Atlantis Healthcare

Contact Centre Trainer

2009 - 2014

Atlantis Healthcare is a leader in providing patient support programs and adherence solutions. They create engaging adherence and self-management programs for patients and clinicians. I worked within the contact centre where I trained across four different healthcare related clients. Not only did I facilitate training programs for clients in New Zealand and Australia but also formulated and designed training outlines, course content, assessments and quality forms. I also determined the instructional methods to be used during training with the main focus on sales, process and systems. To help gauge the effectiveness of training and development programs, I conducted TNA’s (Training Need Analysis) and utilised the relevant data to revise or recommend changes in instructional objectives and methods. To ensure that quality was being met, I monitored and coached staff on methods to improve sales thus impacting overall productivity. I have experience working on an LMS as well as helped with the recruitment process. KEY ACHIEVEMENTS I was promoted to Trainer within a year of working at Atlantis Healthcare i.e. in March 2010 and was awarded for ‘Best Quality’ in September 2009 at Atlantis Healthcare
