It’s my understanding that Salesforce launched CRT101, “Preparing for your Salesforce.com Administrator Certification.” last year at Dreamforce. It’s a 1-day class and costs $850 per student (plus tax by the way!). I had received an email from certification@Salesforce.com on December 29, 2014 with the subject line “Salesforce Certified!
