I just completed my FIRST super badge in Trailhead. I am doing the Prepare for Your Salesforce Administrator Certification trailmix, and the Security Specialist is the first super badge on that trail. It took me 8 1/2 hours to complete although it says it takes six. If you have not yet taken it, I advise you to brush up on all the security content in the modules you have taken leading up to this point. It was a bit grueling for me because once you get used to being spoonfed all the steps in the Trailhead modules, it can be tricky to switch to a different mode of approaching the content. You are forced to draw on everything you have learned so far, and you have to get good at using all the resources available to you on Trailhead.
Now, I’m off to continue knocking down modules to learn the content so that I can start preparing for the Salesforce Administrator Certification exam. I am also planning to immerse myself in tutorials about taking IT tests because it’s been a while since I have taken a test like this. I still have nightmares about the horror show that was my first attempt at taking the GMAT! Completing this badge has given me a lot of confidence as I move through the rest of the modules. Now I am looking forward to my next super badge on Trailhead.
