RESTON, Va., Aug. 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revature, the largest employer of entry-level technology talent in the United States, and Salesforce, the global leader in Customer Relationship Management (CRM), today announced a program to train and certify emerging tech talent in Commerce Cloud, a cloud-first solution that allows brands to deliver exceptional digital buying experiences for B2B buyers and rapidly adapt to market dynamics and customer needs.
Revature and Salesforce first partnered in 2020 to build a talent pipeline of certified Salesforce Developers, Salesforce Administrators and Salesforce Consultants to power the Salesforce economy. Today’s announcement expands upon this mission to meet the growing demand for tech talent trained and certified in Salesforce Commerce Cloud using Revature’s industry-leading approach. The program will be rolled out in phases, with the first phase focusing on the B2B Commerce solution and later expanding to other in-demand areas such as Order Management and B2C Commerce.
“At Revature, we train entry-level talent on the most in-demand skills and certifications, with real-world applications on their resume before they ever set foot in a client’s office,” said Anurag Gupta, SVP, Head of Product Partnerships at Revature. “This is exactly what we’ve partnered with Salesforce to accomplish.
