DreamTX 20 for Architects

We’ve reimagined the Dreamforce experience this year by bringing Dreamforce direct to you. We are transforming the best of Dreamforce to help make sense of this work-from-anywhere world that we are all experiencing today, more than ever before.

This post is all about what’s in store for Architects, during a special part of the Dreamforce to You experience, known as DreamTX.

What is DreamTX?

DreamTX is the Dreamforce Trailblazer Experience — four days of learning, created with Trailblazers in mind. We’re bringing demos, luminary sessions and can’t-miss product sessions to you. There will be something for everyone, for every line of business, and every industry. You’ll get to see the power of Customer 360, share pandemic-related work stories, hang out with other Trailblazers, and be entertained by surprise guests.

And mark your calendars for the 4th and final day of DreamTX, happening on December 17th or December 18th, depending on the time zone that works best for you. On December 17th, at 9:00 am PT (5 p.m. GMT) and on December 18th, at 8:30 am IST (2:00 pm AEST), we’ll be broadcasting across five channels: Developer, Architect, Admin, Ecosystem and Learning & Community. You can also visit the virtual expo to watch a demo, ask questions of our experts, or attend Circles of Success and learn from other Salesforce professionals.

The Architect channel is all about what you need to know now to guide your teams and customers through change. At DreamTX, we’re taking a special look at updates to Architect certifications, and how you can get started skilling up for the most in-demand role in the Salesforce ecosystem and sharing some major announcements for Architects.

Let’s look at what’s in store.
