dOWNLOAD CASE STUDY
For banking and financial services providers, the contact center is often the front line of customer trust. But as products become more complex and customer expectations rise, training new agents effectively without lengthening ramp-up time has become a critical challenge. A leading financial services firm faced precisely this issue: a long, lecture-heavy training program that was impacting time-to-proficiency, agent confidence, and overall support quality. In a high-stakes industry where precision, compliance, and empathy must align in every interaction, the company sought a faster, smarter way to equip its agentsโ€”without compromising on readiness.

The Challenge:

The companyโ€™s existing training model had grown inefficient. New agents struggled with:

  • Lengthy training durations that delayed time-to-floor and added to operational costs.
  • Low confidence during live calls, especially in navigating complex financial systems or delivering compliant verbiage.
  • Inconsistent readiness for real-world scenarios, despite classroom certification.
  • Poor nesting outcomes, impacting customer experience and attrition in early tenure.

They needed a modernized, scalable training solution that built agent capability fasterโ€”and better.

The Solution:

To address these issues, the firm brought in Aucera, a ResultsCX company. Aucera introduced a simulation-based training model using Symtrain, an AI-powered simulation and coaching platform tailored for contact center agents.

This tool provided an interactive, scenario-based environment that mimicked real banking conversations and workflowsโ€”allowing agents to practice, receive instant feedback, and build muscle memory before ever taking a live call.

Key enhancements included:

  • Realistic Scenario Familiarity
    Agents practiced real-world customer scenariosโ€”like account disputes, fraud escalations, or loan inquiriesโ€”building contextual fluency and reducing early-tenure escalations.
  • Increased Agent Confidence
    By engaging with simulated calls and navigation paths, agents developed greater comfort with call flows and regulatory scripting.
  • Efficiency Gains in Training Delivery
    The AI-driven tool replaced portions of lecture-based learning with on-demand simulations, compressing timelines without lowering standards.

The Results:

  • 30% reduction in training time, improving time-to-floor without sacrificing quality
  • 7% increase in graduation rates, signaling stronger engagement and knowledge retention
  • 19% increase in nesting graduation rates, pointing to improved performance in live customer environments
  • Higher certification success rates, thanks to objective, scenario-based assessment metrics

Conclusion

By modernizing its training with AI-powered simulation and targeted coaching, the financial services company transformed its agent onboarding experience, producing more confident, capable agents in significantly less time. In a regulatory-heavy, emotionally sensitive environment like banking, faster readiness and better preparation directly translate into stronger CX and more resilient operations.
