  • To provide people working directly or indirectly in customer service (Public or Private sector), with education and professional standards.
  • To develop and promote the International Customer Service Standard certification program and Australian Service Excellence Awards programs, which will help organizations develop and sustain a customer ethos.
  • To improve knowledge of the components of customer service excellence through research, training and development programs, publications, awards, conferences and customer focus groups.
