Quick take: As the way we work continues to change, and the Salesforce ecosystem accelerates in growth, so does the demand for the digitally skilled workers required for businesses to succeed. Trailhead, Salesforce’s free online learning platform, provides an equal pathway for anyone to learn the skills needed for this “digital imperative.” With the launch of Trailhead for Slack, Salesforce powers a new way for companies to enable their teams to skill up directly in their Digital HQ.

Today, Salesforce announced new capabilities that integrate Slack across Salesforce’s products and industry solutions, including Trailhead for Slack.
Now, with Trailhead for Slack, companies can drive enablement, onboarding, and reskilling in new channels for on-the-job learning from anywhere.
Now, with Trailhead for Slack, companies can drive enablement, onboarding, and reskilling in new channels for on-the-job learning from anywhere. With a simple Slack slash command, employees can discover and share relevant Trailhead content, accelerate their learning with reminders and recommendations powered by Einstein, and track progress with favorited and assigned content — all without ever leaving their digital HQ.
Individual learners can also share knowledge with Trailblazer Community members in shared workspaces, and teams can suggest relevant learning content to skill up together. In addition to discovering free content from Trailhead, the app allows customers to share their own custom content from myTrailhead, making it easier to onboard new employees consistently and quickly skill up employees on specific processes and products.
