Explanation
The consultant should use an Opportunity report to meet the business requirement of showing the pipeline of custom programs for the Executive Education department. An Opportunity report is a type of report that shows information about Opportunities, such as amount, stage, probability, or close date. An Opportunity report can help the department director know the pipeline of custom programs by showing the distribution and performance of Opportunities by various criteria, such as program type, account, or owner. Creating a custom report type, setting up an Affiliations report, or configuring a list view are not ways to meet the business requirement of showing the pipeline of custom programs for the Executive Education department.

After installing EDA, the consultant needs to make the EDA record types available to profiles that need to access them. This is because EDA comes with several custom record types for standard objects, such as Account, Contact, Course, and Program Enrollment. These record types enable different views and fields for different types of records, such as Household, Student, Faculty, Course Offering, and Program Enrollment. By default, these record types are not assigned to any profiles, so the consultant needs to manually assign them to the appropriate profiles based on the business requirements and user roles of the university. This will ensure that the users can see and use the EDA record types and fields correctly and efficiently. Reference: Education Data Architecture Basics, Assign Record Types to Profiles

Appointment Scheduling is a solution that the consultant can recommend to meet the requirement of providing career advice to current students and alumni via phone, email, or face-to-face. Appointment Scheduling is a feature that allows users to create and manage appointments with customers or clients from Salesforce. Appointment Scheduling can be used to offer different types of services, such as career advice, tutoring, or counseling. Appointment Scheduling also integrates with calendars, email notifications, and reports. Success Teams, Queue Management, and Assignment Rules are not solutions that can meet the requirement of providing career advice to current students and alumni via phone, email, or face-to-face.
