New AI-Powered Salesforce Education Cloud to Boost Student Success

A few days ago, Salesforce unveiled its new AI-powered Salesforce Education Cloud. This includes Intelligent Degree Planning and Skills Generator, designed to help institutions provide students with personalized graduation plans, transform coursework into career-ready experiences, and facilitate mentorship programs.

Additionally, Salesforce introduced Data Cloud for education and Einstein Copilot Recruitment & Admission Action, which automates routine tasks, enhancing recruitment, enrollment, and student support.
