Sales Engineers play an important role in companies. They are the interface with the professional customer; their ability to sell technical products or services is key for their success.

Selling technical products or services needs various, pluri-disciplinary competencies from domains such as Science & Technology, Sales & Marketing, or Management, as well as many soft skills.

AASE promotes Sales Engineering studies that include all these fields and best train students for their future job. AASE now launches Education Programme Certification for initial Sales Engineering studies that satisfy the criteria set to ensure high quality education in line with industrial needs.
