Last month, the Sales Program competed in the National Collegiate Sales Competition hosted by Kennesaw State University in Kennesaw, Georgia. 

The National Collegiate Sales Competition provides a venue for dedicated collegiate sales students to improve their skills and pursue career opportunities with top professional sales organizations. Founded in 1999, NCSC is the longest-running university sales role-play competition in existence.

The Catholic University Sales Program Team was represented by Emily Dee, Marketing & Sales '25, and Isabella Cirincione, Sports Management, Marketing, and Sales '25. Students competed in a Sales Role-Play competition where they were tasked with selling Gartner for High Tech Providers to C-level executives, showcasing their sales skills against students from 65+ Colleges & Universities worldwide. Students were also given the opportunity to attend a career fair and network with 25+ corporate sponsors of NCSC. 

"At NCSC, I formed connections with employers and students from all across the globe. I was given the opportunity to step outside of my comfort zone and learn more about the sales process from my peers and leaders. I developed sales, networking, and communication skills that I will be able to utilize throughout my career. I would encourage others to participate in a competition like NCSC and I'm so thankful that the Sales Program selected me to represent the university." -Isabella Cirinicione
