The CPSA has heard loud and clear from sales leaders across the country that Canada has a sales talent shortage at all levels of the sales career path. Working toward closing this gap, the CPSA has consulted employers to identify the national set of skills required for success in sales and is now working to identify the highest quality education partners best positioned to close the sales skills gap in Canada.
“We’re excited to partner with a leading sales educator like Mercuri International” said Richard Louttet, CPSA’s Vice-President of Certification and Education. “Mercuri approaches sales education to inspire sales teams to outperform with engaging formats and relevant content.
