Don’t take our word for it. Listen to the students who tried both.
We asked our students who previously took CourseCareers what it was like before they enrolled in Higher Levels and what separates the two. See below why students prefer Higher Levels 100% of the time.
What Makes Higher Levels Different?
Several Top Instructors
Unlimited Coaching & Job Search Support
The Highest Paying & Best Job Offers
Fully Specialized In Tech Sales
Not Just One Person’s Opinion. A Braintrust Of Top Performers.
Higher Levels isn’t just one person running you through a slideshow presentation. It’s a collection of real strategies that have worked for numerous top-performing sales reps paired with highly tailored continuous coaching from the best in the field.
With several instructors from companies such as Oracle, AWS, PagerDuty, Vanta, and more, we give our students a variety of strategies and allow them to adopt it as their own or edit it so that it’s more personally aligned to them.
And you can rest assured that we’re investing our resources in our coaching staff and training, rather than affiliate marketing.
Unlimited Weekly Live Coaching That’s Actually Led By Expert Instructors
Tech Sales Ascension includes unlimited lifetime access to three weekly live coaching calls led by expert verified coaches (we don’t just throw you into an inactive Discord server and let people who have never sold a day in their lives try to lead the way.)
No former students turned “coaches” with barely any real experience. No mandatory “student-only” practice sessions. No “final exam” practice. No BS.
Looking to get your resume honed in? Looking to land more interviews? Final round presentation or exercise coming up? Negotiate the offer? You have real experts guiding you every step of the way on dedicated coaching sessions.
We Help You Land The Best Jobs
(Not Low-Quality Partner Companies)
The best companies have large enough talent pools that there’s no incentive for them to partner with placement companies. Could we make more money, like CourseCareers, by partnering with low-quality companies and try to push you to subpar companies? Yes. Have we received countless offers from these companies in the past? Yes. Are we going to do it? Absolutely not. We care about your longevity and success (and our reputation) much more than that.
CourseCareers blurs this line by partnering with external companies for placements, making a hefty check every time they place you with one of their partners. This creates conflicts of interest and an incentive to push you to their preferred companies rather than yours.
Our incentives are fully aligned in helping you land the highest-paying job offers, in the fastest amount of time, at the best companies in the world. We don’t win unless you do.
We’re 100% Focused On Tech Sales.
Not 8 Different Things At Once.
Our coaches and programs aren’t selected or prioritized based on how many followers they have on social media or how popular a certain career path is. We’re laser-focused and strongly convicted on tech sales, have been for many years, and will continue to be moving forward.
We have seen time and time again that a scattered focus leave students clueless about how to execute and actually get results. Training ends up being generalized corporate jargon, offering surface level guidance. We don’t care about what’s “popular”, we care about what works and gets results.
And the training doesn’t stop once you land a job. For us, it’s only the beginning. We have a highly engineered path for our students that is meant to guide you all the way to being a $300K+ top-performing strategic AE. Expect to see successful students who are now high-paying SDRs & AEs active in the community, the chats, and the live Q&As
