By: NAPRx® “There is a great demand for pharmaceutical sales reps, which means there is an equal need for solid training devices,” said Stephen Gatlin. “In short order, this program will become one of our most popular offerings. Pharmaceutical sales can be a very rewarding career, and the first step toward realizing that is completing the CNPR® entry level pharmaceutical sales course.” Even if students lack a formal pharmacology and medical education, the program can ready them for a long and successful career by imparting information regarding general medical terminology, clinical pharmacology, managed care, drug sampling rules, effective selling techniques and more. Upon completing the course, NAPRx® students will have gained a comprehensive understanding of the industry, including the role of the FDA, drug products and developments, and how to make an effective sales pitch. Students will also be prepared to take the CNPR® certification exam. “The field is adding 9,000 new jobs this year, and obviously they can’t all be filled by experienced reps,” said Brad Sullivan of the NAPRx®. “Companies will not only be looking to hire professionals who can sell and motivate physicians to buy their brand, but also for someone who can speak intelligently about the healthcare industry and its products. Gatlin’s training is a great avenue to gain the knowledge of clinical pharmacology and medical terminology that is essential to success.” Established in 1989 Gatlin Education is the largest provider of Web-based, instructor-supported training to community colleges and universities. Gatlin’s courses are open enrollment, allowing interested students to start their desired training immediately.
