Digital-first learnings
Lifelong Learning: 76% of the workforce feel unprepared for the future of work, says Salesforce’s Digital Skills Index. With Salesforce’s Lifelong Learning, institutions can implement digital-first experiences allowing students to find relevant programs and courses.
Digital Campus: For the education sector, adjusting to the shift to virtual work is a big challenge. With Digital Campus, you can have connected experiences with students, faculty, and staff through collaboration and communication. Also, you get access to insights tools in an easy-to-use workspace that can be used by your staff or students whether they are on the campus or anywhere else in the world.
Admissions Connect: This is here to make admissions so much easier for both the applicants and the staff. With this, you can streamline the admissions process of your education institute. You’ll get the Application Form Builder to help admission teams easily build customized and branded applications without using any code. Also, this being built on the Salesforce platform, you can easily import data such as the applicant’s education history directly into the application.
Real-time and asynchronous collaboration to support students from anywhere
Using Slack for your educational institution, you can improve engagement and collaboration in real-time asynchronously. Also, you’ll get Student Success Alerts powered by Slack to boost efficient communication and support among faculty and students. You can alert them for Short attendance, low-grade concerns, or pending assignments.
