Handshake Overview: What Do Students See & Experience?

Join us for a virtual training session designed to help faculty and staff understand the platform from the user’s point of view. In this session, we’ll cover:

• What Handshake is and a general overview of the platform
• Key features available to current students and alumni
• Practical and creative ways to promote Handshake and encourage adoption among students and alumni

This session will give you a clear, accessible understanding of how Handshake can enhance a student’s career journey.

Note: This session is focused on the user (student/alumni) experience and meant for any staff or faculty who support students and want a general understanding of Handshake. For career services staff, we will briefly cover backend administrative features and how to request a career services administrative account.
