Since 1999, Salesforce has pioneered the cloud computing space – now the market leader in CRM with 22.9% of the market share! As a result, Salesforce has over 150,000 customers across the globe, all of whom need technical support from Salesforce professionals.
Luckily, there are many Salesforce training resources available for free. Salesforce has been on a mission to make technology skills more accessible by removing the traditional barriers to technology careers, such as cost and complicated concepts. They are always looking for new opportunities to bring talent into the ecosystem and upskill people.
On top of what Salesforce provides, there are even more free Salesforce training resources produced by the global Trailblazer community. Here are some of the best from Salesforce and the community…
1. Trailhead
It’s no surprise that Trailhead takes the top spot on this list! Trailhead is Salesforce’s free training site that has thousands of modules, quizzes, and hands-on activities.
