The survey is now closed
Thank you to everyone who participated and shared their experience with us.
We collected responses from 100 Sales Engineers and conducted 20 follow-up interviews in September and October 2026.
We’re now analyzing the findings to develop practical resources for aspiring SEs, helping them explore career paths, identify transferable skills, and prepare for their first role.
Participants who shared their contact details can expect an email from NAASE in November 2026, with an early preview of the findings and personalized insights into how their career paths compare with others in the study.
The full results will be published once the analysis is complete.
In the meantime, you can take the SE Basics Challenge to test your knowledge and earn a shareable badge, or explore NAASE certification.
