So, are you lost? Feeling like you can’t figure out how to do anything? Are you wondering how you are ever going to get through the day?
Well fear not! It is a little know fact that there are several self paced training sessions on Salesforce, and if you are enterprising enough, you can get in there and figure out stuff all by your lonesome. They are a bit quick, but they will certainly point you in the right direction when it comes to figuring out the questions you need to ask.
How do I get to these fine little packets of self help goodness you ask? Well, its easy. Lets look below the fold shall we… Now, the first step is to find the help button in the upper right of the interface. Click on that guy.
Now a new window should open. You will notice several tabs, one of which is marked training. Click on that one, and you should see something like this.
After having clicked the view classes button, you should be present with a list of links. Each of those links represents a video training session for you to follow along with. It should look something like this.
After you have clicked on the individual link, a training video will appear in a browser window. Although they are short and a little light on detail, they make an excellent starting point for learning all about the Salesforce interface and basic workflow.
Happy learning!
At first I thought Salesforce was cumbersome, but now through the self help lessons I can move where I want to pretty quickly. Thanks for the tip!!
