Only institution specializing in medical device sales education
There's a certain level of finesse, there's a certain level of professional knowledge necessary. You have to look at an x-ray and help the doctor figure out treatment. You have to help a surgeon, as you're standing in the OR, figure out how to use your product while they're using it on a patient."
An interview with Med Sales Institute graduate Ashley Hauss, now working with Venus Concept
...you're going to gain so much knowledge, so much experience. You're going to be blown away with what you don't know walking in. Do I have any regrets? I wish I would've done this 3 or 4 years ago."

Medical device sales offer sales professionals a rewarding career, but also one that is challenging and demanding. The industry continually evolves. Each year, device manufacturers develop new innovative products. Part of the job in medical devices sales is staying on top of new products as they reach the market. This includes devices such as artificial hips and knees, plates and screws for spinal fusion, arthroscopic products for ACL and rotator cuff repairs, and osteobiologic products used to promote bone growth and healing.
In addition to a complex variety of products, medical device sales representatives also work with a knowledgeable and sophisticated audience of healthcare professionals, including surgeons, surgical team members, and hospital administrators. Some sales representatives support surgeons in the operating room, offering their expertise and guidance during an operation.
A medical device sales representative must have more than just talent in sales. They must have the expertise and knowledge to accurately inform medical professionals about the use of specific devices. They must also understand how the orthopaedic implants they sell impact a patient’s anatomy, pathology, biomechanics, and function.
For all these reasons and more, it’s a challenge to break into the medical device industry.
Despite the complexities of the job, it doesn’t have to take years to break into medical device sales. The 8-week and 12-week programs offered by the Med Sales Institute allows students to focus on quickly developing the technical and sales skills needed for success in the industry. They also work on career development and interview performance, preparing them to immediately step into their new career with confidence.
The Med Sales Institute is well-known by hiring managers who recognize the investment our students make in developing their expertise in the field. This separates a Med Sales Institute graduate from other applicants. It also explains why thousands of hiring managers nationwide look for MSI graduates to fill open positions.
Graduates from the Med Sales Institute go into the interview process with an understanding of the surgeons in their territory, the products they sell, and the competition they face. They also go into interviews with a specific plan for starting conversations, moving sales forward, and converting business.
MSI graduates go into interviews more prepared than other job candidates. Thousands of successful graduates have demonstrated that preparation. They now represent some of the largest and most reputable companies in the industry.
Those considering enrollment at the Med Sales Institute may wonder if the program is worth it and whether it will pay off. While thousands of graduates can speak to the value of Med Sales Institute, the more appropriate question might be: If you believe medical device sales is the industry for you, can you afford not to attend?

MSI grads are more hireable than other candidates because they come into this field knowing this is where they want to be and why they want to be here. Others want to “try it out”. I dont have time for “try outs”. I want “go getters”, someone hungry and looking to succeed in this industry and that's what you get with MSI.
