Education Initiative
DSEF supports research and education programs that are expanding knowledge and understanding of the fundamental principles of direct selling.
We commission academic research and sponsor campus programs in the fields of marketing and entrepreneurship. These efforts provide insights into the latest direct selling trends, offer solutions for better business, and help prepare the next generation of industry leaders.
