College Possible needed a faster way to onboard 200 new coaches every year and preserve each student's history so support did not reset every time an AmeriCorps coach rotated out.
Reported impact
College Possible reduced research time for coaches, maintained continuity across coach turnover, and created an always-on guidance channel that lets the nonprofit support far more students with the same coaching base.
College Possible deployed Agentforce to turn its curriculum, knowledge articles, coach notes, appointment data, and historical student interactions into an on-demand support system for both coaches and students. Coaches ask natural-language questions instead of manually searching articles or relying on prior staff memory; Agentforce reasons across Education Cloud records and historical session summaries to surface the right guidance, relevant resources, and student-specific context before each meeting. Because the implementation uses a shared data model with Education Cloud and low-code agent tooling, the nonprofit built and deployed its first agents in one month. Experience Cloud extends the same knowledge base to students through a portal that provides 24/7 personalized answers about essays, deadlines, appointments, and financial aid, preserving continuity even as volunteer coaches turn over each year.
Curriculum content, coach notes, appointment data, and historical student interactions are stored in Education Cloud. Agentforce retrieves and reasons over that information to answer coach questions, then Experience Cloud exposes the same personalized guidance to students through a self-service portal.
"Agentforce then reasons through all of College Possible's curriculum, knowledge articles, and historical student interactions and delivers the information they need immediately."
"Because Agentforce and Education Cloud are part of the integrated Salesforce Platform, it took College Possible only one month to build and deploy their first agents."
"Their initial pilot of 12,000 students is already showing impressive results: Agentforce empowers College Possible to serve four times as many students with the same number of coaches."
"With Agentforce, students will get instant access to answers and resources 24/7 through an online portal, powered by Experience Cloud."
