Handshake: Experiences

Use for: Reporting/Tracking Student Experiences

Handshake: Experiences allows students to report their experiential learning experiences in one place for the university and instructors to track. Students can report-  internships, co-ops, undergraduate research, and part-time jobs (on or off-campus), etc. Once reported, these experiences can be instantly added to the student’s Handshake profile for employers to view if desired. Departments and colleges can request reports of their students when needed as well to centralize this data collection.
