"Customer Service Academy of Jamaica has excellent trainers of customer service principles and techniques. The trainers who came into our hospital to set up the Quality Advantage Program did a superb job. They led us through the various stages of development and implementation from conducting situational analysis, defining customer service goals and objectives, visioning, values and philosophy, development of performance standards, and the training of the staff. The sustainability of the Nuttall Quality Advantage Program is assured by CSAJ’s training of our in-house trainers who have become the champions of customer service in the hospitals and have assumed responsibility for the program’s success."

"We have tried numerous customer service programs in the subsidiaries of the retail and trading division of our company. They worked with varying degrees of success. However, when we approached Customer Service Academy of Jamaica Ltd, to provide us with a customer service program, they presented us with a new approach. This approach was systemic and it mandated involvement of senior management, middle managers, supervisors, and line staff. The results were remarkable! The Quality Advantage Program provides a methodology to improve standards that can measure the effectiveness of how well we deliver the services we provide. Moreover it becomes a philosophy by which all staff members are indoctrinated into a customer service focused orientation." (2004)

"Globalization has forced many organizations, Lee’s Fifth Avenue being no exception, to re-think its market position. Now, more than ever we are cognizant that customers want more than just goods and services. They want the added value, which comes from quality customer care. Lee’s Fifth Avenue is a household name known for its exceptional customer care and top quality merchandise.

Through the Quality Advantage Training offered by Customer Service Academy of Jamaica, we have been able to benchmark best practices of both local and international organizations. This has empowered employees to be more dynamic and proactive in resolving customer issues and offering quality service that exceeds customer expectations.

The benefits gained from the Quality Advantage Program are not only monetary, but it has resulted in further enhancing our brand image and raising the esteem of the staff, who are now better able to augment customer relations. " (2004)

The training also emphasizes the importance of adhering to standards and policies, while at the same time employing a courteous approach; this directly impacts the image of the company.

The Quality Advantage is quite enlightening, and definitely the way forward for any business and/or organization.

"Through the guiding principles obtained from the Quality Advantage Programme, we have become much more adept at developing and catering to our customers’ needs. It encourages forward thinking and we would have no hesitation in recommending any programme developed by Dr. Ben Henry and his team.

The “Train the Trainer” aspect of the programme has ensured the sustainability of the programme. It has also helped our staff to develop additional skills and boosted their confidence.


I believe the programme is essential for the achievement of organizational goals." (2002)

"The recently concluded Customer Service Training, Achieving Success Through Service, conducted by Dr. Ben Henry at Guardian Life, was exceptional, enlightening, comprehensive, and promoted individual and group participation. He brought a global perspective to the training.

The involvement of the entire organization in the service culture training indicated a oneness of purpose, and the Train-the-Trainer course will provide the means to reinforce the programme on an ongoing basis. What gets measured gets done, so Customer Service is to become a priority item in appraising the performance of all employees.

The facilitator is a natural trainer who made participants relaxed, and this allowed for interactive sessions, which brought out the creativity among staff members. There were many varied activities to cement the learning and to ward off lethargy in the afternoon sessions. Dr. Henry shared his knowledge freely, and willingly gave suggestions that can be readily implemented." (2006)

Dr. Henry was lively, interesting, and a very good speaker, and is by far the best presenter I have had in a long time. He made a great impact on the audience that will last for years to come. The presentation style was one of those that made the audience wanting the seminar to go on and on.

Here are some quotes from business people who attended his seminar:

“The presentation was enthusiastic and entertaining, while providing an incredible amount of useful information.”

“From beginning to end, Dr. Henry kept my attention.”

“I am looking forward to the next lecture or workshop.”

“Dr. Henry should come and give a workshop for all managers in Suriname.”

“I have learned a lot in a very short time, and Dr. Henry entertains as well as informs.”

"Dr. Ben Henry always leaves you wanting more! As the facilitator for ‘Pathways to Legendary Customer Care’, participants could not get enough. Needless to say, this seminar was a resounding success and all found it to be an enriching experience. On our evaluation form, 100% of the participants indicated that the chance of them attending a seminar conducted by the same facilitator was very likely.

It is evident, from Dr. Henry’s delivery, that he is passionate about the Caribbean leading the way in best customer service practices. The information provided on this course will aid significantly in improving the ability of frontline personnel to provide a service that exceeds customer expectations each time. According to one of the participants, “The seminar was life-changing. Dr. Ben was inspiring, motivating and enthusiastic about his work. He was great!” This was the great consensus of all the attendees.

The Community College Development Unit certainly looks forward to a long and fruitful working relationship with Dr. Henry. His generosity and interest in the human resource development of Anguilla is greatly appreciated." (2008)
