00:26:13 Krishna A: Iam in Project Management Role and how this sessions will help to build a career in this space
00:26:40 Krishna A: I do have 14 yrs of IT exp with majority of it in Siegel CRM
00:34:49 Elizabeth Rider: How about those who have 10+ years of BA experience and 5 years Salesforce Admin experience but have taken a 1-year break to relocate and get settled? Getting "back in the gam" so to speak.
00:37:20 PEARL CHRISTIE:
Would it be helpful to get an ecba certification from iiba to learn these skills to be successful in collecting the "right" requirements for a Salesforce BA role? I have been exposed to the the Salesforce platform in a QA role in the last 4 years (out of a total of 8) and have done some business analysis activities.
00:38:56 Elizabeth Rider: THank you! I am keeping up with my certs and changes in the last 3 SF releases.

00:53:41 PEARL CHRISTIE: Thank you Laura!!
00:57:34 PEARL CHRISTIE: I have the last 4 years of experience actively working within the Salesforce platform. I just got certified as a Salesforce Admin last week!! Mike, which additional certs would help round out the technical acumen for a Salesforce BA role?
00:59:21 PEARL CHRISTIE: vs. Salesforce Consultant role?
01:01:56 Elizabeth Rider: For business professionals getting back after a few years, consider checking out iRelaunch (irelaunch.com). This site points you to companies that have organized "relaunch" programs.

01:05:22 Kabuki Ocansey: The Business Processes here in Ghana may be different in the U.S. and elsewhere and it is sometimes confusing trying to explain SF to our Community here. Is there a link specifically directing one to a site that helps you understand and explain SF in your own ‘Instance’? I dont know if I am clear enough.
I am stil on my Admin Journey at the moment, learning from MWM and Trailhead. (Kiki, from Ghana)
01:06:40 Elizabeth Rider: Thanks very much Mike and Laura for sharing this information. Best wishes to you both!
01:06:46 PEARL CHRISTIE: Thank you both!
