The Advanced Selling Simternship & Courseware

Prepare your students to sell like pros

Real Pressure. Real Deals. The Most Realistic Sales Practice a Student Can Get.

Most sales training tells students what to do. The Stukent Advanced Selling Simternship puts them in the conversation. Students step into the role of an account executive at SalesHub across 8 rounds of real sales activity. Powered by Copient AI, they practice two-way sales calls with lifelike AI prospects at every stage of the cycle, from cold call to close. They also lead a 1:1 coaching session as a sales manager, with real-time feedback built in throughout. No scripts to click through. No waiting on a peer. Just dynamic, repeatable practice that builds real confidence.

Copient AI Logo

Stukent has partnered with Copient AI to bring interactive, AI-driven video conversations directly into the Simternship experience. Students interact with AI avatars that look, respond, and push back like real prospects, giving every student consistent, high-quality practice at scale.

See What a Real Student Interaction Looks Like

This is not a multiple-choice role-play. When students enter a cold call, they are having a real conversation. With Copient AI, the AI avatar immediately responds directly to what the student says, challenges weak answers, and stays in character throughout the call. Students have to listen, adapt, and sell.

More Than Your Average Sales Simulation

Other tools simulate the idea of a sales call. The Stukent Advanced Sales Simternship offers the experience of one. Students have to show up, listen, adapt, and close, just like they will on the job.
