EDUCATION:

Virtanza, a Laguna Beach-based educational course creator, recently launched a technology sales training program at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County Training Centers.

The 13-week online course includes an introduction to information technology with an emphasis on the cloud, big data and cybersecurity. Students will also earn five Salesforce.com badges and an Amazon Web Services Certified Cloud Practitioner certification by the end of the program.

The offering enables “learning outcomes you can only get when you layer the premier technology training team with the proven results of our experiential sales program,” Virtanza Chief Executive Debbie Holzcamp said.

Holzcamp launched Virtanza, registered as Sales2Job Academy Inc., to fill a gap in sales education amid increasing demand for sales professionals in 2018.

Today, the company white labels its courses for 21 schools and universities, including University of California, Irvine and, most recently, University of California, San Diego.

Virtanza closed a $1.4 million seed round of financing in November. Backers include OSEA Angel Investors, Tech Coast Angels, Arizona Tech Investors, Band of Angels, Expert Dojo and M&K Angels.
