Their plan was to offer training to Indian men and women in call center activities such as sales, service, and troubleshooting for electronic goods of all sorts, and then to match those employees to the needs of foreign firms looking to set up call centers. The training consisted of a dozen sessions covering culture, speaking fluency, electronic awareness, buying and service behaviors, and other such basic matters that all call centers required.
