The pandemic is continuing its rounds worldwide, but luckily things are starting to return to normal.

And with things returning to normal, in-person events are also back!

First in line is TrailblazerDX, a developer-centered event in San Francisco. What does it have in store for the Salesforce B2C Commerce Cloud developers? Let’s have a look!

As a side note, there are “holes” in the given schedule below. So be sure to use the provided tools to plan your multi-cloud agenda!

Get Connected

It won’t be a Salesforce event if you don’t meet up with other people you have been “slacking” with for the past years!

I have created a channel on the Salesforce B2C Commerce Cloud Unofficial Slack to get connected!

Join the SFCC Unofficial Slack

This year I will not be able to attend in person 🙁, but don’t let that stop you from connecting with your fellow B2C Trailblazers!

Can’t attend

The main shows can be viewed through Salesforce+ for free!

(No) Bootcamp

It is customary that a “Bootcamp” precedes some events. This is a four days expert-led learning track with two opportunities to get certified (for a price).

But unfortunately, there is no track available for anyone wanting to get some Salesforce B2C Commerce Cloud certifications.

Looking at the ecosystem’s growth within Salesforce B2C Commerce Cloud, I feel there could be room to add a Bootcamp for Salesforce B2C Commerce Cloud to this list.

Note: Such a Bootcamp generally costs around $3000. But for a 4-day on-site training and two certification attempts, it is well worth it.
