The plan aims to enhance the matching between counsellors and clients. By focusing on metrics such as Match Success Rate and Client Satisfaction Score, the initiative seeks to ensure clients are paired with counsellors who best fit their needs. For example, analyzing client profiles helps in understanding their challenges, while counsellor performance evaluations can improve expertise.
Moreover, aligning counsellors' specializations with client challenges ensures the efficacy of counseling sessions. Gender Match Compatibility provides comfort, catering to specific gender preferences. Meanwhile, the Prevalent Challenge Resolution Rate helps address recurring client issues, offering targeted strategies for improvement.
