Salesforce
Setting up and looking after Salesforce: records, fields, users, access and simple automation.
Common in sales and business development, customer success and operations roles.
Is this actually your gap?
If you already administer or configure Salesforce at work, you probably don’t need a beginner course. The skill may just be missing from your CV or Profile, and that is a proof gap, not a skill gap.
Missing a keyword on your CV doesn’t mean you need a course. This page can’t tell which one you have. Only you know what you’ve done.
Step 1
Practise
Start by doing. Practice shows you what you can already do, and what’s actually missing. Practice is not work experience.

Step 2
Learn
Use a course for the parts practice showed you’re missing. Finishing a course shows what you studied. It doesn’t show that you’ve used the skill at work.

Step 3 · Optional
Credential
You don’t need a credential for this skill. The superbadge above is a hands-on assessment on a public profile, which shows the skill directly.
When you’ve practised
Practice and courses aren’t work experience. When you’ve used the skill for a real organisation, that work can become experience.
