Replacing FileVault Institutional Recovery Key with Individual

The majority of our Macs are encrypted with an individual key configuration that is escrowed with Jamf, but a handful were set up with a separate configuration using an institutional key. I'd like to switch them over to our individual key configuration, but am hoping there's a way to do this without having to decrypt and then re-encrypt.

I haven't been able to find anything here or elsewhere on how to do this, so I'm assuming maybe it can't be done? Since there's only a small amount, it's not the worst thing to have to re-encrypt.

Thanks in advance!

im on the same boat, someone from the slack admins slack channel suggested this:
FV Reissue Key

( i havent tested this out but do let me know if this works)
