The device selects a test issue of a plurality of test issues to be presented to the customer service representative, and, based on the test issue, a virtual assistant to converse with the customer service representative. The device initiates, based on an availability of the user device, a communication session with the user device, and causes the virtual assistant to converse with the customer service representative regarding the test issue. The device obtains data concerning a performance of the customer service representative during the communication session, processes the data using a machine learning model to determine a performance score for the customer service representative, and causes, based on the performance score for the customer service representative, at least one action to be performed.
