I am in trailhead trying to do training that my company Anyseals wants me to do & when I get to the 3rd training session & try to get to the test it says this  Connect to your Developer Edition. What do I do???

Hello Chris,

You will need a Developer Edition, DE for short, to do the exercises in Trailhead.  To get one, go here and give your basic information:https://developer.salesforce.com/signup.  Make sure to use an email address and a phone number that you will always have should you leave your current Org.

A Developer Edition is a fully featured Salesforce Org; you can do almost anything in a DE that you can do in an Enterprise Edition Org.  You can screw around, goof things up, break it, and nobody will care.  Consider it your personal playground.  Trailhead doesn't want people using production Orgs, so they require you to use a DE instead.

After you get a DE, check out this YouTube video explaining how to use it for the Trailhead exercises: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rKrBR5qbTg

Regards,
Parker
