Sales training programs are responsible for not only bringing new hires up-to-speed, but for keeping the remainder of the sales force informed as well. In today's challenging biopharmaceutical marketplace, industry and economic changes are driving an increased focus on providing advanced training and development for sales force managers and reps. In order to ensure success within their Sales Training programs, leaders must prepare for rapid shifts to emerging technologies, while also maximizing existing technology.
