Session Type | Description |
Breakout | A 30-40 minute presentation on a specific product, feature, topic, or solution. The longer length allows for a 5-10 minute Q&A portion with the presenters. A deep dive breakout = 40-75 minutes to allow for a more focused, in-depth presentation, typically technical in nature. |
Theater | A quick 20-minute introductory and informative session on a specific topic. Can be tips and tricks or a how-to presentation. |
Deep Dive Panels | These are longer technical presentations with time for an accompanying Q&A. These sessions are allotted a 75-minute block. In the first 25 minutes, you watch a demo of a real-world technical project, then in the next 50 minutes, the speaker will take questions from the audience and a panel of experts, who will help drive deeper conversation. |
Roundtables | Small group discussions on a particular topic. Opportunity to network and discuss common challenges facing the Salesforce community and experts. |
Hands-on Workshops | Expert-led trainings to learn a product or skill. Devices may be provided or you can bring your own. Check the session abstract to confirm whether a device will be provided. |
Campfires | Connect with community leaders and product experts from the Salesforce, Tableau, MuleSoft, and Slack communities. These 20-minute interactive sessions are entirely community-led and designed to spotlight the skills, learnings, and expertise that can help elevate Trailblazers’ careers across the Salesforce ecosystem. |
For Awesome Admins, there will be 26 breakout sessions and 35 theater sessions, as well as two deep dives on Prompt Builder and Reporting. There are so many great sessions to attend that a portion of the sessions will be repeated to ensure the most popular ones happen more than once. Several sessions will also be recorded to watch on Salesforce+ anytime!
There will be even more AI content in the AI Theater (located in Einstein Lookout), with three repeating sessions back-to-back throughout the event on Einstein Copilot, Prompt Builder, and Data Cloud.
