Looking to begin your journey with using Experiences as part of your workflow or not sure how to take advantage of this feature? Start with Experiences Training on the right.

With Experiences (see Experiences at a Glance on the right for more in-depth information):

  1. Students submit their experience (internship for credit / no-credit) to Experiences in Handshake. This is utilizing the template and workflow YOU build in Handshake.
  2. Approval kickoff begins for your career services staff.
  3. Approval begins for YOUR assigned reviewers (optional) to your experience template(s). This can include associated mid-term and final evaluations as needed.
  4. Internship occurs
  5. Evaluation begins automatically based on YOUR criteria.
  6. Report on successes of each experience!


Tip
titleBonus!
Students who input their internship information through experiences are allowed to approve an automated update to their Handshake Profile based on the experience information they submitted. This support our University goal of 100% Handshake profile completion.

Once a template is created, it can't be deleted. Please edit all "Test" templates to the templates you need when you're ready. It's best practice to keep the list of Draft and available templates to a minimum. The longer the list of available templates, the longer the list students will need to scroll through before finding the template they need.
