What you will learn in this Agentforce & Salesforce AI Foundations program

AI-enabled business workflows require more than a prompt. Learners practise defining an agent’s scope, limiting its access, grounding responses in approved information, and testing outcomes before use.

Skills covered

  • Agent and chatbot concepts
  • Agent configuration and actions
  • Prompting and grounding
  • Testing, governance, and human escalation

Who should join?

Salesforce administrators, developers, consultants, and professionals exploring enterprise AI. The learning path can be adjusted to the learner’s starting level after an initial discussion with the training team.

Prerequisites & learning approach

Salesforce/CRM basics are recommended; coding is required for developer-oriented extensions.

  • Instructor-led concept sessions and guided demonstrations.
  • Practice tasks and scenario-based discussions.
  • Project documentation and review checkpoints.
  • Interview preparation or certification-aligned revision where relevant to the chosen track.

Duration is a recommended planning estimate. Final hours and lab access should be confirmed for the selected cohort.

FAQs about Agentforce & Salesforce AI Foundations

Do I need to be a developer?

Not for the foundational functional pathway. Developer extensions require programming and platform knowledge.

Will we build an AI agent?

The capstone is designed around an agent or assistant use case. Actual hands-on implementation depends on authorised org access and available features.

Does the course guarantee an AI certification?

No. The program provides training and optional certification preparation, not an official Salesforce credential.

Is an official Salesforce certification included?

The course may include certification-aligned preparation, but it does not issue an official Salesforce credential. Check the current official exam guide, registration process, prerequisites, and fees separately.
