Staff Academy lesson 4 of 12

Run a complete trial-class handoff

Connect front desk, instructor, visitor, and post-class follow-up so context does not disappear between roles.

Learning objective

The instructor knows the visitor’s goal and the follow-up owner knows what happened in class.

Sample language

“Coach, this is [name]. They’re here for [program] and are hoping to [goal]. After class I’ll meet you both here and help with the next step.”

Use this as a structure. Replace every bracketed field and follow the school’s approved terms and language.

Coaching points

  • Share only context needed to serve the student.
  • Name the post-class host before class starts.
  • Ask the instructor for a concise observation, not a diagnosis or guaranteed outcome.
  • Record attendance and the next action promptly.

Practice scenario

The normal enrollment staff member is leaving as the trial class ends and must hand off follow-up.

Role-play scorecard

  • Transferred useful context
  • Named the next owner
  • Closed the loop after class
  • Recorded the result

Apply it to real work

Own one trial from arrival through its documented next action.

Completion evidence: The trial timeline shows arrival, attendance, context, owner, and dated follow-up.
