Executive Summary
‍
Webstr.io is a leading technology enhancement platform for college recruitment. It maximizes recruitment results through efficient, intelligent technologies delivered to students on an AI platform. There are many needs for higher education, and Webstr.io has chosen to begin with the admission process and move in other directions from there. The higher education institution and students must communicate differently to ensure their journey will continue. Webster.io recognizes that their services are essential but very focused. As they grow, they will provide many other benefits. They also understand that the problems affecting Higher Education are multidimensional and require the examination of respected thought leaders, innovators, technologist diversity specialists, and students to serve their clients and the industry better. The Advisory Council's composition reflects its commitment to inclusivity and diversity, encompassing high school, college, and business leaders. The Advisory Council includes individuals directly involved in these areas and those with unique perspectives and expertise. By bringing together multidimensional thought leaders worldwide, the Advisory Council aims to foster a global dialogue and exchange of ideas.Operating on a virtual platform, the Advisory Council members will receive prompts from the operating team on various topics relevant to higher education. These prompts will catalyze discussions and insights from the council members. The responses and contributions of the Advisory Council will be distilled into informative articles that highlight their collective expertise. One example is a case study provided by Joel Evans, Founder and former owner and Editor of Geek.Com, an online resource for technology enthusiasts. We are currently using an article by Joel as a placeholder for a prompt to be sent to Advisory Counsil Members. Such case studies will enable the council to analyze real-world scenarios, share best practices, and provide practical guidance to institutions facing similar challenges.
These advisory articles will serve as valuable resources for the senior teams of more than 400 institutions, providing valuable insights and recommendations. Additionally, these articles will be distributed through various channels to reach a wider audience, ensuring that the knowledge and expertise shared by the Advisory Council have a global impact.
By leveraging the collective wisdom of the Advisory Council, Webstr.io aims to drive positive change and advancements in higher education, high school, and business. The council's guidance will address the admission process and extend to other aspects of students' educational journeys, ultimately preparing them for career success beyond graduation.

In theory, we could solve problems that began before these students were born and have followed them throughout their lifetime. A more practical solution is to look at the period from high school, college, and the beginning of their career. We will review a ten to twelve-year period of time. In theory, mitigating these problems during the high school years would allow higher education to focus on goals that prepare them for their future. This solution will better serve the students and their future employment. The Advisory Council recognizes that we must provide the understanding that goes far beyond admissions to better service to provide assistance in a student's past journey and strengthen their future journey beyond graduation and throughout their career. We could suggest covering their lifetime, but the Universe between high school and their first career position should keep the council busy. The Advisory Council will comprise thought leaders in the high school, college, and career areas. It will include leaders with direct contact in these areas and leaders who generally would not be contacted. The group will be global, comprised of diverse multidimensional thought leaders worldwide. The Advisory Council will be based on a virtual platform. Members will receive prompts for topics from the operating team. The Advisory Group's responses will be developed into an article.  These advisory group articles will be sent to the senior team of over 400 institutions and distributed by other sources worldwide.Here are two examples of the prompts the advisory council could receive. The first is a model provided by Joel Evans. The Advisory Council would receive:

Unified Communications Case Study
Consolidation, Business Process Optimization, and Adoption: Migrating Adtalem Global Education Telephone Numbers to Microsoft Teams' Phone
‍
Introduction:
ETI was commissioned by the Senior Director of Technology Service Delivery at Adtalem to orchestrate the transition of more than 7,000 telephone numbers from the incumbent phone system, Intrado, to Microsoft Teams Phone. The project was driven by cost reduction and consolidation objectives, all to be accomplished within a challenging timeframe. Beyond the migration itself, ETI assumed responsibility for optimizing operational workflows and executing a comprehensive training and user adoption approach. After completing the initial engagement, ETI was hired again to facilitate the migration of an additional 2,000 numbers from 8x8 to Microsoft Teams Phone due to Adtalem's acquisition of another school, Walden University.

Challenges:
• New Concept Adoption: Microsoft Teams Phone was unfamiliar to Adtalem's users, necessitating the development of tailored training content and methods.
• Complex Business Process Reengineering: Overhauling the provisioning and de-provisioning of numbers required seamless integration of Azure Active Directory, ServiceNow, and Microsoft Teams.
• Geographic and System Diversity: For the Walden University acquisition, migrating over 2,000 numbers from 8x8 to Teams Phone demanded an understanding of diverse telephone systems and user needs across different geographic locations.

Approach:
• Business Process Reengineering: Engaged with business analysts and stakeholders to analyze impacts, design new end-to-end flows, and integrate relevant systems.
• Automation of Provisioning Workflow: Thoroughly analyzed the existing process of provisioning and de-provisioning accounts and numbers to identify challenges and developed seamless integration points and automation scripts between Azure Active Directory, ServiceNow, and Microsoft Teams.
• Stakeholder Engagement: Partnered with stakeholders from different areas to understand system usage and formulated an Adoption Management strategy.
• Training Strategy: Collaborated with stakeholders to develop train-the-trainer sessions, in-person training sessions, communication schedules, how-to videos, and documentation for Teams Phone usage.
• Communication Management: Collaborated with customer experience and training teams from Adtalem and Walden University to develop a communication strategy.

Results:
• Successful Migration: ETI efficiently migrated over 9,000 telephone numbers and associated devices, ensuring uninterrupted communication.
• Operational Improvement: By evaluating and reengineering Adtalem’s provisioning and de-provisioning business processes, we achieved a seamless and unified approach across ServiceNow, Azure Active Directory, and Microsoft Teams. This eliminated manual processes, expedited provisioning, boosting overall efficiency, and reduced costs for the client.
• Adoption and Training: Comprehensive training materials facilitated the smooth adoption of Microsoft Teams Phone, minimizing disruptions and maximizing user proficiency.
• Effective Collaboration: Partnering with stakeholders from different areas ensured a holistic understanding of requirements and needs across diverse organizational teams and geographic locations.

Conclusion:
Through effective project management, collaboration, and strategic execution, ETI achieved seamless migration of telephone numbers from legacy systems to Microsoft Teams Phone for Adtalem and Walden University. The successful consolidation initiative led to cost savings, streamlined and automated business processes, and improved user experiences. The organization has technology that fits their needs now and for the future. The case study underscores the importance of stakeholder engagement, tailored training, and meticulous process reengineering in achieving complex technology transformations.In the second example
