There are a changes a coming to Salesforce certifications. We get all the details from Tracie Ozug the Trailhead Program/Project Manager for Salesforce Credentials.

First, anyone who has NOT taken their Salesforce Spring ’18 or Summer ’18 Maintenance exams MUST finish them by December 14, 2018.

What’s very important is to complete your Summer ’18 exams you MUST link your Webacessor account to your trailhead account first!

Maintenance exams for Salesforce will be managed on Trailhead going forward and will be a combination of questions and demo builds.

There’s a really easy way to link your Webaccessor and Trailhead accounts, confirm your accounts are linked, and view any outstanding exams.

  1. Goto https://sfdc.co/mystatus
  2. Click Link in the email to link the Trailhead & Webaccessor Account
  3. Follow Directions

It’s so easy, Mark and Brian do this live on the episode.

Brian and Mark also want to give a very energetic and excited “Welcome Back!” to Shannon Hale who is returning to Salesforce as the new Product Manager for Flow Builder!
