The Canadian Call Management Association (CAM-X) Call Centre Award of Distinction program focuses on Customer Relationship Management (CRM), courtesy, etiquette, and professional call handling. This program is appropriate for both in-house and outsourced call centers that provide order entry, fulfillment, registration, surveys, Web applications, escalated emergency response, reservations, and help desk services. Calls are judged by two independent judges using a predetermined point scoring criteria.
