Service Excellence
As CMU’s Service Excellence initiative enters its 22nd year, we embrace our welcoming environment and roll out the “maroon carpet” across campus. Whether in-state, out-of- state, internationally, or virtually, our goal is for every interaction with CMU to be positive. Our success depends on you and a commitment to move these four values from words on paper to promises kept by individuals, departments, and colleges – indeed, the entire university.
One thing I know: the only ones among who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve.
Training
Open Workshops
Departments and units are invited to send staff to open programs offered throughout the year by Professional Development Programs (PDP). These include a general overview of service, how to keep the vision alive and working with difficult customers.
You can register for these workshops at the employee training site under My Account>My Workday>Employee Training>Current Campus Training.
Department Workshops
PDP will deliver one to three-hour presentations for specific departments by request. These presentations will include a general overview on service and CMU's Service Excellence initiative, and can be highly customized to meet the needs of the particular department.
Please call Harley Blake at x1073 for information and to schedule training.
Live Trainings
Friendship is on our seal. Compassion is a core value. Care is our primary service value. From Disney's "creating the WOW" to tips on how to handle the difficult customer, a variety of sources and methods will be used to explore how to live these values out daily. Student employees are welcome!
