Description

The Complaints Handling System (CHS) is the central repository for all UWS complaints, with the exception of protected disclosures. This half-day course covers system functionality and is delivered at the Case Officer level. A Case Officer is anyone who receives a potential complaint - that is, they are the first point of contact from a complainant who may be either a student, staff member or external contract to UWS. This level of training is designed to assist staff to manage and monitor issues and complaints raised within the University environment.
