In its continuous effort to promote workforce development, Salesforce has introduced The Reimagined Trailblazer Community on 21st June’21.
Along with that, Salesforce had also issued a grant of $700,000 to its long-term partner and non-profit organization Year Up to reduce the opportunity gap for young individuals.
Both these announcements came at a time where digital skills are in demand, but they’re not enough supply for this requirement.
A recent report suggests that nine out of ten executives face skills shortages to tackle critical issues. Also, many don’t have sufficient resources or time to learn new skills as they remain out of the job.
Kris Lande, SVP of Trailblazer Ecosystem, Salesforce said, “The path to a great job requires more than just new skills — it requires the support of a community.”

Salesforce has associated its free learning platformTrailhead with the online community platform Trailblazer to create a reimagined Trailblazer community.

The biggest takeaways of the new platform are-
A personalized homepage called Today page – This personalized homepage is a one-place destination for community feed,in-process learning modules, and recommended Trailhead modules.
The Learning Panel – The learning panel brings up relevant learning content from community interactions on Topic and question pages. The Panel does this by suggesting learning modules that are relevant to your conversations and questions.
Community in Trailhead GO – Trailhead’s free mobile app Trailhead Go has been brought into the Trailhead community. With this app, members will be able to get answers to their questions quickly from anywhere by accessing direct messages.
