Business & Community Connections

Students who complete the Sales Certificate Program at the University of Washington Foster School of Business have a competitive advantage when applying for internships and jobs. Highly praised for their talent, preparation, and sophistication when interviewing, networking or presenting, our students are noticed by business leaders across the country and hired more often than other candidates. Placement rate for Sales Certificate Program graduates is greater than 90%. 

Mentor a student 
During one academic quarter, students work with an assigned sales management mentor to experience day-to-day activities and issues in a thriving business. We have engaged over 100 business leaders—from PepsiCo, Altria, McKesson, KOMO TV, E & J Gallo, and other companies—to fulfill this position in the past. If you would like to mentor a UW student, please contact Judy Mohoric at jmohoric@uw.edu or 206-685.5239.

Offer student internships or sales jobs
Do you have a sales internship or job opportunity available in your company? We can notify all students involved in the Sales Program.  Please email the job description and application process to Judy Mohoric at jmohoric@uw.edu.  

Provide financial support 
The goal of the Sales Certificate Program is to become self-sustaining.  Businesses and individuals can help us reach this goal by offering financial support.  Contact Judy Mohoric at jmohoric@uw.edu or 206.685.5239 to discuss the options.
