The training programme consists of a six-week Podcast series, released every Monday from 22nd March, a Webinar on ‘Getting Started’ released on week beginning Monday 12th April, and 10 Salesforce Training Playlists, released throughout the six-week period and covering:

  • Salesforce CRM
  • Marketing

  • Developer Skills
  • Career Development
