If Your Course is Missing or Incorrect

Having your course added to your profile is an important component of Handshake! Employers often use courses to connect with students of interest to offer job opportunities as well as event invites. Career services users may also use courses as a requirement to attend appointments, events, or fairs.
  • If your institution pre-created an account for you, your course(s) will be uploaded to your profile. This is usually added from data provided by your institution's registrar. 
  • If you created an account yourself, you received the option to add a course yourself during the account creation process. 
If the pre-loaded information is incorrect, needs to be updated, or if it's missing completely, you'll need to contact your institution's Career Centre to correct it. This will ensure that the data your institution has on file is accurate, and that your information doesn't revert in Handshake.
Refer to How to Locate your Institution's Contact Information in Handshake for outlined steps on how to connect with your institution's Career Centre.
