SV Academy
SV Academy is an intensive tech sales training provider that offers a 4-week full-time and 8-week part-time online high-growth sales training program. The full-time schedule has a 40-hour-per-week time commitment for the first 4 weeks of training while the part-time schedule requires about 20 hours per week for the first 8 weeks. SV Academy combines hands-on, intensive training with a strong network, career transition support, and career coaching to help job seekers launch meaningful high-growth business careers. During the training phase, learners will attend live classes, complete weekly assignments, improve their interview readiness, and participate in a live employer project. SV Academy focuses on training job seekers in high-growth sales, an approach pioneered by tech companies and now in demand across all industries. This approach is less about schmoozing than traditional sales, and more focused on data, agile processes, user empathy, and strategic problem-solving.
To be eligible for admission, an applicant must be a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident. The application process involves completing an online application, submitting and passing a written assessment, and a final interview with an admissions director. No prerequisite skills, business experience, or a perfect GPA is needed for enrollment. SV Academy is looking for committed job seekers with strong written and verbal communication abilities who are coachable and eager to start building their business careers and transform their lives.
After successfully completing the 4-week full-time or 8-week part-time training, a dedicated Career Transition Manager will help program participants navigate the job search process. SV Academy will also match and facilitate warm introductions between job seekers and prospective employers with open roles. After getting hired, SV Academy graduates will receive professional career coaching for the first 6 months, helping them to maneuver the rough spots of beginning a new career and put them on a path toward a promotion.

Jemar L.Student • Fellowship • OnlineOct 18, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceAmazing Value!
When I signed up, I had no idea what I was fully getting myself into. But this program turned out to be much better than I expected. I learned so many skills that I will take with me for the rest of my life, both professionally and personally. I thought it was a scam at first, but I'm happy I didn't let my skepticism keep me away from this amazing program!- StarasiaGraduate • Fellowship • OnlineSep 24, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

This experience has been very intense. Within 4 weeks, I've grown tremendously because I was pushed past my limits. I was supported by the entire SV Staff and fellow cohort members. We really built a community amongst one another which is amazing. Now I have skills that I'll be able to bring with me anywhere. - Dina GatilloStudent • Fellowship • OnlineAug 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Tech Sales Fellowship
I'm very thankful I completed the SV Academy Tech Sales Fellowship. As someone with zero formal training in sales, I found it educational, informative, and very challenging. There were quite a lot of materials to learn - self-study and live sessions. Your time management skills will be very helpful while you go through the fellowship.
The fellowship gave me a confidence boost to plan my new career in tech sales. (I am pivoting from healthcare.) It's also very encouraging to know ...I'm very thankful I completed the SV Academy Tech Sales Fellowship.

The fellowship gave me a confidence boost to plan my new career in tech sales. (I am pivoting from healthcare.) It's also very encouraging to know that they have mentoring and career counselors as well to help their graduates. I'm hoping they'll make the transition as smooth as possible. Don't get me wrong. It's a lot of work by myself as well. But it's nice to know that they are there to assist me in case I need it. - Peter LiuStudent • Fellowship • OnlineAug 25, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Customer Success Program
Great program! Getting in feels like such an honor! You get to work with some amazing people and really feel prepared and supported in taking that next step in your career. I can be challenging at times - It is a lot of work - but so rewarding to complete and you get to take chances in a simulated work-like setting without the fear of messing up your actual job. Great feedback as well with all assignments. - Dequan FrederickGraduate • OnlineJun 23, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
