DePaul University“I was a campus hire for Pepsi and worked my way into a Senior Category Analyst role. The online Category Management training that Pepsi offered to employees gave me functional training and industry understanding I didn’t have coming from Fullerton. Without the functional training that Pepsi offered I would not be in the position I am today.”
