Salesforce has officially announced the launch of its new advanced AI certification, the Agentblazer Legend, set to debut on July 28, 2025. This certification represents the highest level in Salesforce's AI certification series available on its Trailhead learning platform, aimed at validating the skills necessary for developing and implementing autonomous AI agents in enterprise settings.
The Agentblazer certification series is comprised of three tiers: Champion (foundational), Innovator (intermediate), and the new Legend (advanced). Designed specifically for enterprise professionals, it focuses on validating deep expertise in AI and autonomous agent development through Salesforce's Agentforce platform. Launched in October 2024, Agentforce empowers businesses to create AI-driven workflows across various sectors including sales, marketing, and customer service.
Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff indicated that the introduction of Agentforce marks a significant milestone in the latest wave of AI development, referring to it as the 'third wave' of AI. Early adopters like Wiley have reported a substantial 40% increase in case resolution rates during peak times, attributed to the efficacy of AI agents powered by the platform.
In further developing this initiative, Salesforce expanded Agentforce with the release of Agentforce 2.0 in December 2024, which enhances it into a broader digital labor solution that Benioff claims opens a trillion-dollar market opportunity. To qualify for the Legend certification, candidates must meet specific criteria by September 30, 2025. Those who succeed will also be entered into a giveaway for Salesforce-branded merchandise.
The push for such a certification comes amid a growing demand for AI skills within the workforce, seen as crucial for business professionals in the future. With Salesforce’s certification initiative, the company aims to alleviate the current skills gap in enterprise AI adoption. This evolution reflects Salesforce's transition from being primarily a CRM provider to a frontrunner in the AI domain, encouraging organizations to invest in training and skills development necessary for leveraging AI technologies effectively.
