Why You Should Attend
Everyone’s excited about AI agents. But an agent that can see only the SIS doesn’t know about the financial-aid hold or the LMS disengagement, so it answers confidently, and wrong. The intelligence isn’t in the agent; it’s in the connected data behind it. In this 30-minute briefing, CCF convenes a practical, vendor-neutral look at why data integration across campus systems is the real work behind agentic AI.
What you’ll take away:
- Why a siloed agent gives confident, wrong answers, and how to avoid it
- What “one student, one source of truth” actually takes across SIS, LMS, aid, and CRM
- How integration turns an agent from a demo into something that resolves real issues
- Where to start if your systems don’t talk to each other yet

What It Really Takes to Make Voice AI Work in Higher Education
While Voice AI is capturing the attention of colleges and universities, its success depends on more than conversational technology. In this session, we’ll discuss where Voice AI delivers measurable value across admissions, helpdesk, and student services, how it integrates with existing campus systems, and what institutions need to deploy it securely and effectively, transforming Voice AI from an exciting innovation into a trusted solution that enhances the student experience and improves operational efficiency.
