I don’t have an internship for credit program, can I still use Experiences?
Yes! We recommend adding an Experience template that includes “Not for Credit” in the title. Most schools configure this without any approvers attached.
How do I test submitting an Experience?
View as a test student and submit a new experience OR report a New Experience as a career services staff
Can a student see the status of approvers on an Experience?
Yes! Students can keep track of where their experience is in the approval process by viewing the status of each approver.
Can I enter a job that is not in Handshake?
Yes, you can enter a job that is not in Handshake simply by typing it into the Job field on the Experience request form.
Why am I not seeing a Supervisor field for students to enter?
You will only see the approver fields after you have selected a Template type from the dropdown.
How do I download experience data with approvers included?
Check out this article that explores How to Generate Reports on Experiences
Why are the Supervisor fields empty in my quick download reports?
The 'supervisor' field is actually an item from the legacy configuration of Experiences (prior to August 2017) With these product updates, those supervisors are now encompassed under Approvers. In quick download reports, the supervisor fields will only populate data for Experiences that were submitted prior to August 2017.
Is the student information pulled from the reports a "timestamp" at the time of the Experience?
No, this reporting download is not like Appointments, which capture information at the time of the event. Experiences information will auto update based on the information that is updated on the student's profile. As a result, we recommend pulling those CSV downloads at the midpoints and end of your semester
