초록

본 연구는 학원교육서비스산업의 급속한 성장과 더불어 중요시되고 있는 교육서비스품질의 각 차원(강사 상호작용품질, 직원 상호작용품질, 물리적환경품질, 결과품질)과 전반적 고객만족 그리고 충성도(재수강의도, 구전의도)간에 조절변수로서 전환장벽(인간관계, 전환비용, 대안의 매력)을 설정 한 후 실증적인 고찰을 통해 학원교육서비스의 발전적 방향과 마케팅 전략 방향을 모색하는데 그 목적을 두고 있다. 연구 결과, 전환장벽의 하위차원인 ‘인간관계’와 ‘전환비용’ 그리고 ‘대안의 매력’ 모두가 기존의 수강생이 이탈하는데 중요한 장벽으로서 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다.
이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 학원은 내부적으로 학부모를 대하는 직원의 태도나 행동에 대한 서비스와 함께 전문성을 증대시켜야 되며, 특히 가장 중요한 요인인 강사의 교육 서비스에 대한 부분을 강화하여 고객만족을 증대시켜야 할 것으로 보인다. 또한 외부적으로 학원의 분위기나 디자인등 학생들이 편하게 공부할 수 있는 분위기를 조성함과 동시에 학생에게 맞는 맞춤형 교육서비스를 개발하여야 할 것으로 보인다.
