“James was a student for the Salesforce Talent Alliance Career Cohorts where I was a advisor/mentor. TACC is a career development program that helps accelerate the careers of jobseekers from traditionally underrepresented communities. I can faithfully say that James was a pleasure to have in the program. Not only did he dive in to learn as much as he could about Salesforce, the platform, and the best ways to build a career in the ecosystem., but he was a very active part of the TACC community. He would attend each session focused on absorbing as much as he could while also giving back and providing inputs for other learners. To say that he was a pleasure to have in class would be an understatement. I'm eager to see where James lands as he's a natural leader with a strong sense of curiosity, and I fully recommend James for any position in tech.”

How do you showcase your online learning achievements on your resume and portfolio?
Set clear career goals by identifying in-demand job roles and relevant skills. Be specific about your short-term and long-term objectives, outlining scopes, steps, tasks, and subtasks. Research industry-specific keywords to align your skills with employers' needs. Choose your learning mode wisely, opting for online or in-person courses based on your schedule and learning style. Read reviews for informed decision-making before enrolling into course. Stay current in your field. Use AI tools like ChatGPT, Quizlet, or Google's Bard to study. Connect new concepts to your existing knowledge for better retention. If you don't apply what you learn, there's no point learning it. Engage in projects to hone your skills and gain experience.
