  1. Good session…I follow the content on apex hours regularly. Informative and help us updating with all the Salesforce concepts.

  2. Sandhya, I watched your video, and this is a good solid introduction. It’s not easy to balance explaining the basics for those who are entirely new to Service Cloud (and perhaps Salesforce), while avoiding simply repeating basic materials on Trailhead. I think the actual walk throughs, with occasionally highlights of important info, are helpful. Keep sharing what you know!
