Chandler Family Professional Sales Center

The Chandler Family Professional Sales Center promotes professional selling and sales management, provides high-quality instruction to both students and sales executives, and conducts research that advances the field of sales.  The program’s strong sales curriculum and experiential learning component earned it the distinction as a “Top University Sales Program for 2013” by the Sales Education Foundation, a section of The Dayton Foundation established to promote university level educational programs in sales through the provision of scholarships, creation of educational materials and other methods.

The Chandler Family Center's goals are:

  • To provide experiences that are relevant, practical and engaging
  • To offer local firms the latest sales knowledge and skills
  • To connect students with local and national employers
  • To conduct research that advances the field of sales.

The Chandler Family Center is a full member of the University Sales Center Alliance (USCA), a consortium of sales centers located in universities throughout the United States.  Elon University is the only school in Virginia and the Carolinas with this distinction.

The Chandler Family Center was endowed by Thomas E. Chandler, owner of Chandler Concrete Company, and his family. To read more about the Chandler family, click here.
