Best forDevelopers and integration professionals with hands-on experience and an appropriate development certificate; beginners can use the included Developer foundation first

Where to begin

Two ways to prepare for architecture

Architecture practice needs development depth, not a mandatory purchase from a particular training provider. Choose the preparation route that matches your experience; beginners still have the full Developer sequence available.

Build readiness with the included foundation

Use the beginner, Developer L1, Developer L2 and professional-practice courses to build and explain your own development portfolio.

Bring external development readiness

Bring equivalent practical development experience plus an appropriate certificate from a verifiable issuer. Prepare evidence of contracts, Mule events, DataWeave, tests, delivery and support; a certificate alone does not demonstrate those practical skills.

External training and experience can prepare you for architecture. Credit transfer is not currently available; completing the listed courses remains required for a BEAT IT path certificate.

Your roadmap

Build skills in the right order.

Every phase adds knowledge, practice, and a portfolio result you can explain during an interview. Select an available course below to open its Video Lessons and Reading Lessons tabs.

01

Development readiness before architecture practice

Entry readiness: development experience and certificate

Prepare through the included BEAT IT Developer material, or bring equivalent external development experience and an appropriate verifiable development certificate. Purchasing the Developer path at BEAT IT is not an entry prerequisite. External evidence is preparation guidance here, not automatically recorded course credit.

Reference and practice

Use the supporting guides.

AI and agents: workbook, worked solutions and local lab
Practice MCP tools, Agentforce and Agent Fabric design, identity boundaries, approvals, RAG, evaluation and recovery. Includes a printable workbook and provider-free Python simulator.
Developer 1, production-focused Developer 2, and both Architect tracks
Review the bundle scope, free Git/Postman foundations, Salesforce reference courses and the recorded Mimeo coverage mapping.
Review the complete Developer roadmap
Use the included foundation and L1 / L2 practice to close a specific skill gap without treating a BEAT IT Developer purchase as mandatory entry.
Inspect the Store delivery evidence
Use parent / child POMs, source control, testing and CI/CD boundaries as concrete inputs to architecture review. Distinguish the supplied template from observed runtime evidence.
