What Is Quality Calibration?

In a contact center, quality calibration is a process where supervisors and quality assurance (QA) teams align on evaluation standards for assessing agent interactions with customers. This ensures that all evaluators grade interactions consistently to provide a fair evaluation and to help the contact center attain measurable improvements and set benchmarks. It is part of a continuous improvement approach to performance measurements.
