The students will compete at Kennesaw State University March 2 – 4. Inaugurated in 1999, the NCSC is the largest and oldest sales role-play competition in existence. The 2013 competition will feature 63 universities and 126 competitors in the sold-out undergraduate division. The NCSC is sponsored by more than 35 business organizations.
Âé¶¹Ô´´ is a perennial contender for the individual and team awards. Our team earned the team championship in 2002 and finished in the top four on six different occasions. Additionally, Âé¶¹Ô´´ students won the individual championship in 2002 (Lisa Hanger) and 2008 (Kyle Williams).
