Athleteforce: From Elite Careers in Sports to Elite Careers in Technology

Nelson Mandela once said, “sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.” 

Whether it provides a safe place for children who live in at-risk communities or creates pride in the hearts of armchair athletes, sports can be a powerful tool for good.

That’s where AthleteForce comes in. AthleteForce is a free Salesforce program for UK-based retired or retiring elite or professional athletes looking to transition to a full-time career in the technology industry. The program provides up to 8 weeks of training and self-paced learning, mentoring, and in-person event opportunities. It’s a “playbook” for anyone looking to build the knowledge and skills needed for a career at Salesforce, in the Salesforce partner ecosystem, or in our global customer community. 

If you are a UK-based former professional athlete looking to apply your elite skills to a new career in technology — or if you know someone who is — join us as part of AthleteForce!
