This lab is intended for Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) administrators needing hands-on experience to learn how to more efficiently transition from on-premises Unified CM to Cisco UCM Cloud using the UCM Cloud Migration Assistant (UCMC MA). The UCMC MA utility is available by request from Cisco by completing a Smartsheet application at https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/6dbddec6a44646cba53b56a8fd8fbff6
