A consultant is working with a customer who already uses Salesforce and wants to install the Education Data Architecture (EDA). The consultant has confirmed that EDA can work in the customer's existing environment.
Which location should the consultant visit to install EDA in the existing environment?
A university's Study Abroad office is getting ready to implement Salesforce to streamline internal processes. In the past, most of the work was done using spreadsheets and paper. The office is unsure of which metrics to use to determine whether the implementation project is successful.
Which metric should the consultant recommend?
The number of student phone inquiries and the volume of emails to the office are not valid metrics for this scenario, as they do not reflect the impact of the Salesforce implementation on the internal processes of the Study Abroad office. These metrics may be influenced by other factors, such as the demand for study abroad programs, the quality of the website and marketing materials, and the availability and responsiveness of the staff. These metrics may also not capture the efficiency and accuracy of the data and workflows that Salesforce can provide.
A university has hired a consultant to help it plan the campus's enterprise roadmap for Salesforce. The CIO wants to use a single. Salesforce org across the university and is interested in learning more about the Education Data Architecture (EDA). The university has two existing Salesforce orgs, one uses Person Accounts, and the other org uses a custom data architecture.
What should the consultant do first lo assess the situation?
The first thing that the consultant should do to assess the situation is to document solution requirements from the groups involved. This will help the consultant understand the current state, pain points, goals, and needs of each group that uses or will use Salesforce, and how they relate to each other. This will also help the consultant determine whether EDA is a suitable solution for all groups, or whether some customization or integration is needed. Submitting a Salesforce Support case to merge orgs, installing EDA into one of the production environments, and creating a new Salesforce org using EDA as the foundation are not good first steps, because they do not involve gathering requirements from the stakeholders, and they may cause data loss or disruption.

A CRM committee for a university has asked a consultant about the major release cadence of Salesforce.org and Salesforce.com platform enhancements.
When are Salesforce.org releases?
Salesforce.org releases are approximately two weeks after Salesforce.com releases. This means that Salesforce.org customers can benefit from both platform enhancements and industry-specific solutions in a timely manner. The other options are incorrect because they do not reflect the actual release cadence of Salesforce.org. Reference:

An institution's Office of Career Services wants a solution that allows students to schedule appointments with any available .......... directly from a portal.
Which feature should the consultant recommend to meet the requirement?
Advising Pools is a feature that allows students to schedule appointments with any available advisor directly from a portal. Advising Pools enables advisors to set their availability and preferences, and students to see which advisors match their needs and book appointments accordingly. Email to Case, Success Teams, and Early Alerts are not features that allow students to schedule appointments with advisors from a portal. Reference:
