Carnegie Speech Assessment and NativeAccent Software

Many customers take it for granted that the agents they speak with could be located anywhere in the world. Many also concur that agents and customers ought to be able to understand one another.

Enter Carnegie Speech Assessment from Carnegie Speech, which enables you to assess how well prospective agents speak English, and what training in pronunciation they might need if you hire them.

What we appreciate about Carnegie Speech Assessment is that it lets you evaluate agents' pronunciation without having to become an expert, for instance, in dentals, plosives and fricatives. The software also gives you a basis for gauging an agent's pronunciation of English in the context of other languages the agent speaks. What's more, because Carnegie Speech Assessment accounts for regional variations in how people converse in English, the software help you identify the kind of training in pronunciation agents may require, whether or not they are native speakers of the language.

The upshot: Carnegie Speech Assessment earns a Best of Show award for offering call centers that employ a widespread workforce an objective method to determine which prospective agents can communicate most clearly with customers.
