Creating a One-Stop Help Desk and Transforming Your Call CenterSalesforce.org
Presentation from Salesforce.org Higher Ed Summit 2017 by: April Tuomi of Northern Arizona University
Northern Arizona University, partnering with Sierra-Cedar, implemented Salesforce as the institution's campus-wide system of engagement and prioritized the Student Solution Center (Call Center) and Student Service Center (Walk-in One Stop Shop) as the initial projects. The goals for these centers were to capture student interactions in a consistent and reportable manner, replace electronic and manual resource materials, and integrate key data into the solution for quick access. The team gained immediate efficiencies by implementing Case Management, via Service Cloud, including Knowledge articles, Email to Case, and Live Agent. Several departments are now able to collect, monitor, collaborate, and report on all student interactions that result from student phone calls, in person meetings, and email inquiries. In this session, we will walk you through the solution and provide insight into the process of implementing it.
The University of Wisconsin SES - a New Kind of SIS!Salesforce.org
Presentation from Salesforce.org Higher Ed Summit 2017 by:
Andrea Deau, University of Wisconsin Extension
In 2016, the University of Wisconsin System's Flexible Option added a new business degree to its online competency-based portfolio. An innovative learning structure brought new challenges to operations and systems already stretched by UW Flex's unique needs. Pushed to capacity and with a tight one-year timeline, the build of a centralized student engagement system (SES) was taken on. When UW Flexible Option was launched, it was known that existing technology and systems infrastructure were not designed to support centralized operational services or accommodate a competency-based modality. Given the lack of existing solutions in the marketplace, and the tight timeline, the path to a successful future rested with internal development of an integrated student engagement system designed to provide users with an optimal service experience. Presenters will share how they leveraged Salesforce to build a new kind of student information system (SIS) managing the student lifecycle, admission through graduation.
The document provides an overview of best practices for interview preparation. It discusses what recruiters look for in candidates, different types of interviews including resume-based, behavioral/situational, case interviews, and industry/domain-based interviews. It also covers commonly asked questions, structuring answers, and preparing for online interviews. The agenda outlines understanding recruiter perspectives, practicing different interview styles, researching target companies/industries, and developing frameworks to structure thoughtful, well-informed responses.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

100% Online live Zoom class and attendance is mandatory. All absences will be unexcused, and your instructor does not have the authority to excuse an absence. The request to excuse an absence, together with supporting documents showing an extreme situation emergency, should be presented to your academic adviser.
Consider this class your job. Think of me as your supervisor. If disrespectful attendance or behavior persists, I reserve the right to adjust your grade as a consequence of poor professional behavior.
This course requires professional and respectful classroom behavior. Students are strongly discouraged in the following activities (including but not limited to): inappropriate posture, reading non-class materials such as newspapers, extensive social chatting, or sleeping during the class meeting. Inappropriate classroom behavior will result in your grade.
Turning on the webcam is highly recommended. However, those students who are not using laptops/tablets can use your smartphone to join-in a Zoom meeting.
All Quizzes and Exam in this course are take-home. So, if I can see or image any types of cyber-cheating (discuss, copy, share your answers with other students/classmates), I’ll report inappropriate behavior to the VP of Academic affair and Dean of Students. In addition to that, I’ll change exam format as a live which means must turn on webcam, and I can be a proctor during your exam and quizzes.
Plagiarism and academic cheating (including cyber-cheating) are strongly disallowed/prohibited.
If anybody copy other’s work, ideas, words, materials.
The consequences for cheating, plagiarism, unauthorized collaboration, and other forms of academic dishonesty can be very serious.
I will not involve any of these process.
Using SafeAssign, it is easy to detect academic dishonesty.
It is very important when writing papers to correctly cite any information that you use that is not your own, original information
All Quizzes and Exam in this course are take-home. So, if I can see or image any types of cyber-cheating (discuss, copy, share your answers with other students/classmates), I’ll report inappropriate behavior to the Dean of Academic and Dean of Students.
Factoring Trinomials of the Form x2 + bx + c and x2 - bx + c. Just as the product of two binomials can often be rewritten as a trinomial, trinomials of the form ax2 + bx + c can often be rewritten as the product of two binomials. For example, x2 + 3x + 2 = (x + 1)(x + 2).
