2) Pre-Conference boot-camps and HOTs: The absolute best at your disposal
Probably, the most compelling part of the deal.
For certification hopefuls, experts on-hand make Dreamforce 19 the place to be.
You could use the opportunity to finally sail through harder parts of the coursework. Boot-camps on offer feature 8 learning tracks. Although, you’ll need to be prompt to get in though-they tend to fill up fast.

That’s all the help you need to take off those training wheels. This is to say nothing of Trailhead’s ‘ask-experts’ section – where talk is jargon-free.
4) Sittings will help serial procrastinators keep pace

In any case, jumping in the deep end could be good for you. At least you’ll come away with better impressions of the platform’s nuances.

The thing about user-groups is that they let you meet new people from another part of the world. They make you look beyond just skill sets, beyond certifications.
Straightaway, you’ll be network early and make real connect at the best possible venue.
Afterward, if you’re lucky, you could find excellent company to frequent the event the next time around.
8) Treat Yo-self … to the Dreamforce kick-off
That’s right, all exam sessions end before the main event. It translates to 4 days to take in the Salesforce ecosystem and San Fran. Isn’t that something?
Trailblazers certifying through the event receive fancy merch to sweeten the deal. And later, an all-exclusive party for the boot campers. (Which will undoubtedly be the highlight for campers once the sun sets over Moscone).
