Developer Story – Kulsum Maner
“If you’re offered a seat on a rocket ship, don’t ask what seat! Just get on”.
These lines have actually become a real-time example in the life of our beloved colleague Kulsum.
Kulsum, an experienced .net developer, started the second phase of her career journey with CTU (CEPTES Technopreneur University). She took a few months gap in her career due to unavoidable reasons. When she got a chance to restart her career journey, she was unsure about exploring new opportunities.
At that time, she joined CTU. During the joining, she was quite nervous and scared for two main reasons: one for the employment gap and the other was that she wanted to change her career path from dot.net developer to something new. She chose #Salesforce as her next job opportunity.
She made one of the most daring, career-defining decisions of her life, diving into Salesforce without ever having heard of it before. She knew nothing about its market presence, how it worked, or even what it was—but she took the plunge anyway.
While sharing her experience with us, Kulsum said- “I had no idea about this #CRM. When I started my first day at CTU, I was so tense and anxious, so many questions were running through my mind like – ‘Will I get this’, ‘Am I at the right place’, ‘How will I learn the new things that I never heard in my career before’! But CTU has completely changed my perception. It is the perfect place where any non-technical, semi-technical, technical student or professional can overcome their fears and career challenges.
I never thought I would become a part of the Salesforce Community one day. I never knew that I would crack such a big opportunity just with four months of training and guidance at CTU. But today, in less than 180 days, I have become a proud Salesforce Trailhead.
I thank CEPTES Software for playing a massive role in my career-changing journey. CTU has given me a lot of things that I never expected and dreamt of. Today, I am successfully calling myself an SF Omni Studio developer under the guidance of technical experts cum Gurus like PR and Deepam. I recently achieved my Data Cloud certification, marking an exciting new milestone and adding a valuable skill to my career journey!”
“A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning.”- I dedicate this to the mentors at CTU.
