Spring 2023 Session  

Note:  Our Spring 2023 Program is now underway.

Quick Summary:

 

  • WHAT: A 12-week mentoring program focused on Salesforce Admin training

  • WHO: A curated group of 10-15 participants 

  • WHEN:  Starting date TBA (based on registrations.) 

  • WHERE:  Online, self-guided, plus periodic Zoom meetings (see details below)

Our Winter 2023 session is crafted to speak directly to you: artists who want to build a sustainable and fulfilling career that combines your artistic background with a foundation in technology.  During this time, you’ll be working with and guided by a group of people who have been on this career journey, and are living that experience right now. 
 

Here’s an overview of what to expect

 

  • Technology Industry Job Introduction:   This program will help prepare you for a very specific technology role – that of a Salesforce Admin.  We’ll help you understand the role of a Salesforce Admin through online materials and live Zoom sessions.  
     

  • Training Roadmap and Mentorship:   We will present you with a 12-week curated selection of self-guided online training modules selected from Salesforce’s free online training platform, Trailhead.  You’ll be assigned a mentor (see backgrounds of our mentors here) who will check in with you on a bi-weekly basis to help keep you on track, and we will provide our own “knowledge check” tests along the way to make sure your skills are honed.  Our mentors are just like you - artists/performers who have built hybrid careers combining Salesforce Admin work, along with their arts interests. 

    At the end of our program you will be prepared to take the Salesforce.com Associate Certification, which will be a helpful credential towards getting a job. 
     

  •  Group sessions:  We will schedule periodic group “Q&A” Zoom sessions with guest artists who are doing the exact kinds of jobs you are training for.
     

  • Community of Peers:  You’ll be part of a community of like minded peers who are pursuing (or have pursued) the same path forward. We’ll add you to a Slack channel so that you can reach out and collaborate with other members of your cohort.

 

  • Resume Prep and Interview Skills: We will help you build an effective resume for Salesforce roles, and provide coaching on the questions you’ll likely hear in an interview, including mock interviews with your mentor to help you practice your answers.

 

  • Job Search Guidance:  Although we cannot guarantee you a job, we will provide placement assistance to help you land an appropriate entry-level technology position.  Our focus is on helping you identify  positions in nonprofits that need technology support, or companies that support nonprofits.
