About The Customer
Teach For America is an organization that enlists, develops, and mobilizes our nation’s most promising future leaders to grow and strengthen the movement for educational equity and excellence. The organization recruits “remarkable and diverse individuals to become teachers in low-income communities” to confront educational inequality classroom by classroom. These are some of the most distinguished and desirable job applicants in the world, and they’re also pursued by big brands offering big salaries. The organization is headquartered in New York, NY.
The Challenge
Teach For America is an organization that recruits distinguished individuals to become teachers in low-income communities to confront educational inequality. These individuals are some of the most desirable job applicants in the world, pursued by big brands offering big salaries. Keeping these applicants engaged throughout a rigorous selection process is essential. The challenge was to stay top-of-mind with these illustrious applicants. Some qualities valued by Teach for America are difficult to quantify, like leadership or passion for equality while others are fairly easy. For example, an applicant’s GPA helps the organization understand the individual’s academic achievement. Teachers with backgrounds in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) are in high demand by schools around the country, so Teach For America is focused on attracting more people with these backgrounds into the corps.
The Solution
Teach For America and LunaMetrics partnered to stay top-of-mind with their illustrious applicants by uniting the Audiences feature in Google Analytics with Google search remarketing in AdWords. Basic information provided by users early in the Teach For America application process was made available in the Google Tag Manager Data Layer, captured in Google Analytics using Custom Dimensions, and then used to group users anonymously into custom segments. These segments, once combined, allowed the Teach For America team to identify and engage the most competitive potential teachers as they planned their careers. Teach For America then used the segments for applicants with the most desired qualities to create audiences in Google AdWords and crafted personalized campaigns on the Search Network with Remarketing Lists for Search Ads (RLSA).

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
