Over the last six months, we’ve all been challenged. Life as we know it transformed overnight. Nevertheless, the resilience and innovation of our Trailblazer Community has only grown stronger. And one shared thread that continues to unite our Salesforce ecosystem is a passion for learning.

At the onset of the pandemic, Trailhead Academy’s first step was to pivot the entire global training catalog from physical to virtual classrooms — bringing the same expert-led learning, collaboration, and fun to you.

Ryan Holmes, IT Digital Sales Apps Manager at J.R. Simplot Company, attended our virtual courses. Previously, he was skeptical about virtual learning, but COVID-19 prompted him to give it a try. After attending the class, Ryan emphasized,

“It turned out my only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner! I am so happy about the experience and I would not hesitate to take another virtual course in the future!”

Next, our goal was to bring the accelerated power of bootcamps into your homes with the launch of Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp — a flexible, blended, and prescriptive learning program guided by our expert instructors to help you crush your Salesforce Certification goals.

Making learning more accessible

Upskilling and reskilling have never been more important, and we’ve been so thrilled to see Trailblazers around the world growing their careers with Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp.

That’s why we’re excited to share that following the conclusion of our promotion, we’re reducing the cost from $900 to $450 USD for the Administrator Bootcamp, Platform Developer I Bootcamp, and Platform App Builder Bootcamp — making this proven digital learning opportunity more accessible to the community.

Learning with Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp, twice a week, you’ll be able to ask questions and review each week’s learning with your Salesforce Instructor and fellow Trailblazers. You’ll also be able to access all of the course content as well as on-demand recordings of live instructor sessions to help you prepare for your exam.

Plus, the course also includes a voucher so you can sit for your Salesforce Certification exam when you’re ready (valued at $200 USD!).

With expert guidance from our Salesforce Instructors to motivate your learning, Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp is focused on accelerating your path to Salesforce Certification — from anywhere.

Trailblazers everywhere are seeing positive impacts from Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp. Tammy Punter, Knowledge Manager at HCL Technologies, shares,

“Taking the class really put everything into perspective for me to understand the concepts clearly and effectively. I truly believe I would not have passed the exam without Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp and our fantastic instructor! The course gave me the confidence I needed to take the certification exam.”

Trailblazer Temitope Adepoju was brand new to the Salesforce Platform when she first started with Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp. The expert-led guidance empowered her to earn her first certification. She reflects,

“One of my goals for 2020 was to become Admin certified, and without a doubt, Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp was the best investment I’ve made this year! Great content, awesome instructor, met new friends, learnt a ton, and earned my first Salesforce Certification — a very memorable experience!”

“Being guided by an instructor really helped solidify the topics and highlight what was important. I 100% owe my passing grade to the awesome instructor and Trailhead Virtual Bootcamp!”
