In this role, you'll deliver instructor-led training that prepares County employees to confidently use the new CARES application before statewide deployment.
Your first week of role-specific training. Following training, you'll be assigned to provide training support on-site at one location.

This is an excellent opportunity for experienced Salesforce trainers and enterprise software trainers who enjoy educating others, supporting technology adoption, and making a meaningful impact during a large-scale implementation.

The Child Welfare Services–California Automated Response and Engagement System (CWS-CARES) is California's next-generation child welfare platform built on Salesforce technology.

This is a unique opportunity to participate in the full lifecycle of a major statewide Salesforce implementation-from preparing users through instructor-led training to serving as a trusted subject matter expert during post-go-live support.
