Service Level Agreements (SLAs) define the types and standards offered by a service provider to its customers. They help manage customer expectations, define parameters for performance issues, and specify the consequences of non-compliance with the agreement.    

This course is focused on the role of SLAs in meeting the organisational needs of companies in long-term relationships with external service providers. You need to know how your corporate partnerships will operate and how to address any problems that arise. In addition to learning how to create SLAs, you will also understand SLA structures, strengths, and weaknesses.

  • Understand the core elements of SLAs and their applicability to your organisation.
  • Develop, draft, and manage SLAs.  
  • Describe SLA negotiations with internal and external suppliers.  
  • Articulate applicable quality outcomes in an agreement.  
  • Assess SLA performance using scorecards and establish benchmarks for future SLA development.
