Learning Paths

Create a personalized and always-available learning experience for your users. When you customize Learning Paths, you can choose whom to assign a learning item to—individuals, public groups, or all users. The Guidance Center icon in the global header opens a panel where users can see suggestions from Salesforce and your Learning Paths assignments. Associate the learning item with a particular app or page, and optionally apply a due date. Choose modules from Trailhead or an enablement site (myTrailhead), and add links to other training resources for the ultimate custom training experience. Admins can let other stakeholders, such as trainers or sales team managers, assign and manage learning items.

• Learn more on Trailhead, and take the User Training and Enablement module.

Note As long as your Salesforce-related accounts are part of your Trailblazer.me profile, badges that you earn while inside Lightning Experience are included in your profile. See Trailblazer.me and Trailhead. If your company has an enablement site, you don’t necessarily have a Trailblazer.me profile, but you can create one. See Create a Trailhead Account, and log in with the username and password that you use to log in to Salesforce.

If your company uses Salesforce Identity for Enablement to authenticate users to your enablement site, the Salesforce Trailhead badges that you earn in-app appear on your Trailblazer.me profile. The enablement site badges that you earn don’t appear on your Trailblazer.me profile. See Considerations for Selecting an Authentication Provider
