Are you a motivated learner with a degree looking to join a competitive and rewarding field? The Post-Degree Diploma in Sales offers a broad exposure to sales and marketing viewed from technical, creative and management perspectives so that you can succeed in being a top salesperson in Canada.
This Sales Post-Degree Program is customized for your needs, depending on your individual goals:
Get valuable work experience through the Business Internship program
In the Business Internship Program, you’ll apply the theory and knowledge you’ve learned in class into a real-world business setting. During your unpaid part-time internship, you’ll be assigned tasks and projects that junior management, marketing, business, administrative and/or sales employees complete in the modern workplace.
To be accepted into the internship program, you must contact the Career Centre early in your studies at Douglas College.
Graduate job-ready with the Career Boost program
Designed for post-degree students, the Career Boost program prepares you for part-time paid or volunteer positions that complement your studies. You’ll participate in career-building workshops, one-on-one coaching sessions, career fairs, networking with employers, peer-led leadership meetings and more. Once you graduate, you’ll get the continued support, skills and knowledge you need to find a full-time job in your field.
