The symposium concluded with several recommendations, the most notable being:
- Providing a license for Microsoft Visio integrated with the previously provided Microsoft account, which includes licenses for Microsoft Office.
- Implementing the program in educational projects by encouraging the use of Visio in designing educational and training diagrams for students, in order to develop their skills in creating flowcharts and organizational diagrams.
- Adopting Microsoft Visio as the official tool for designing organizational and flowcharts, due to the flexibility and ease of use it offers.
