The PRC program is designed for individuals looking to break into pharmaceutical sales. It provides foundational knowledge about the industry, covering topics like ethics, communication of pharma data, and industry codes of conduct. Graduates from this program will be equipped with the skills to effectively promote and sell pharmaceutical products, primarily those used in primary care or to treat common conditions. The PRC program is ideal for individuals new to the industry or those with a background in sales who wish to transition into pharmaceutical sales.
The CSPP program, on the other hand, is geared towards experienced pharmaceutical sales representatives who want to advance their careers by moving into specialty sales. Specialty pharma reps focus on promoting specialty medications, which are often high-cost, high-complexity drugs used to treat complex, chronic, or rare conditions. The CSPP program provides advanced training to help reps navigate the additional complexities associated with specialty drugs, such as more complex health insurance and reimbursement issues, and more in-depth clinical discussions with healthcare specialists.
