Quick Reference: Links and Resources for Salesforce Education Cloud

By Jaclyn Jimison

There are a growing number of resources out there as Salesforce establishes Education Cloud. Most of those resources, because of the short amount of time Education Cloud has been available (since Spring 2023), are either official Salesforce documents or materials from implementation partners.

I had some of these listed in a note document, but then I thought, why not turn them into an article? So here are some of the links I use and reference regularly. You may want to save this as I plan to update as I find more. 🙂

General Salesforce Documentation

• Salesforce Help: New Education Cloud

• Education Cloud Data Model Diagrams (ERDs)

• Education Cloud Developer Guide

Accounting Subledger

• Salesforce Help: Accounting Subledger

• Accounting Subledger for Nonprofits and Educational Institutions

Salesforce Scheduler

• Salesforce Help: Salesforce Scheduler

• Set Up Salesforce Scheduler for Education Cloud

• Salesforce Scheduler Developer Resources

• Appointment Booking with Salesforce Scheduler

OmniStudio

OmniStudio is a beast of a tool (and really borders on a completely different way to work in Salesforce), so these links are just the tip of a very big iceberg. I will definitely share some deeper dives into how Education Cloud utilizes OmniStudio in other articles.

• Use OmniStudio with Education Cloud

• Salesforce Help: OmniStudio

• Get to Know OmniStudio

• Build Guided Experiences with OmniStudio

Trailblazer Groups

• Nonprofit and Education MindShare

• Education Release Readiness

Hopefully some of these are helpful! If nothing else, it might save you some time accessing valuable reference materials here.
