About
Salesforce retired their Developer 401 Certification in September, 2015. Taking its place is the new Salesforce Platform App Builder Certification, which is considered the starting point for Beginner and Aspiring Developers on the Salesforce Platform.

We go through each section of the Study Guide and I have devoted a corresponding section of the course with each section of the Study Guide.
