Course Description

We build an Asset Management App in this course.

If you have attained the Salesforce Administrator Certification, you are ready to start the journey to becoming an Advanced Administrator. Become a Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator by enrolling in this first course of a three-course certification course series. Be sure to get the other two courses as well to complete the set!

I have taught over 150,000 students on the Salesforce platform and I want you to join me in my latest course. I have structured this course to go in-depth on the first three Knowledge Areas of the Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator Exam Guide:

  • Security and Access

  • Extending Custom Objects and Applications

  • Auditing and Monitoring


  • The Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator Certification has a pre-requisite that you have an active Administrator Certification on file - if you have not attained your Administrator Certification, I recommend that you first complete that certification and locate my relevant training courses for that certification via my instructor profile.

We will go in-depth on all of the core concepts and topics of the Salesforce Security Model in this course. It's a deep dive on user accounts, licenses, profiles, permission sets, profiles, roles, groups, teams, territories and more.

This course is recorded in Salesforce Lightning Experience.

Amazing content. It helps you understand what you need to know and how to apply what you've learned. It is really useful for the Advanced Admin and general knowledge. I'm a little bit sad that it's broken up into 3 parts but I get why.

By Anonymized User on 2/2/2023

Mike Wheeler is an excellent teacher who explains many techniques, troubleshooting ideas, etc. I have signed up for the additional courses and hope to take my Advanced Admin Certification Exam soon. Easily worth the money paid for the course on Udemy.

By Paula on 1/6/2022

Love, love, love the course. Its is easy to digest. Mike us thoruogh in his explainations. I feel confident that once I complete all 3 course if will pass the Adv Admin exam with ease! Thanks Mike!!

By Wenbo Liu on 12/31/2021

This is a really good course, maybe it is the best course of advanced admin in Udemy. It is even better that it is rearranged the sections according to the new exam guide. Salesforce has updated the exam guide in Dec 2021.

I have purchased the Salesforce Admin, Sales Cloud and Service Cloud reviews from Mike Wheeler and have passed all 3 exams on my first tries. Working now on the Advanced Admin, to then move ahead towards the Data Architect. Hopefully, Mike will have course on the Data Architect Certification sometime soon. Thank you, Mike!

By Eva Moore on 12/13/2020

Very thorough. The visuals and explanations make it easy to understand.

By Jay P on 10/26/2020

Mike's Admin 201 three-part course was structured and the vast majority of information included was extremely relevant as learning material. This Advanced Admin course so far however, is the complete opposite. It is not structured at all. There is no logical flow to the teachings. Very hard to decipher the limited important relevant learning material from the vast majority of irrelevant stuff. It did improve after the Security topic a bit though.

By Jordan Krauthamer on 10/15/2020

Always a great in depth look at subject areas on the exam guide. Passed my admin cert first try with Mike's help, hoping to continue my success with the advanced admin cert soon!

By Brian Schwartz on 10/6/2020

some of the content is outdated

By Katie koerner on 8/18/2020

There's a lot of jumping around in the video. Could be planned, fully setup, tested, and then displayed.

By Anitha on 8/18/2020

A very useful and informative session , I really like the way Mike teaches .Thanks for all the information and I highly recommend this course

By Michael Tookes on 8/6/2020

Exactly what I expected having taken two other courses of his already. If you're on the track to receiving your first five certifications; I highly recommend Mike Wheeler's courses!
