How Students Secure Internship Placements with Tevera
The field experience is an exciting opportunity for students to gain professional experience while continuing to develop their knowledge and skills, all with the support of your program. Finding and securing a placement with an appropriate site and supervisor can be a time consuming process and looks different for many programs, though.
As your students work through the process of applying to and interviewing with placement sites, they may not understand all of your program’s pre-placement requirements. As a result, your field team becomes consumed with individualized planning, student-by-student task management, and attending to the ensuing plethora of student needs. A consistent task workflow can help ensure that placements are easily and confidently completed (and you can toss that stack of sticky note to-do lists in the recycling!).
A Placement Process that Cuts Down on Time, Paper, and Frustration!
With Tevera’s Site Placement workspace, students have the platform to complete and store documentation and integrate placement information into the time tracking and reporting required later on in their placements.
The site placement workspace is built to provide students with the guidance they need to secure a program-approved placement! You, your students, and their supervisors have the ability to initiate, send, complete, and approve placement documentation all within one collaborative platform!
The Site Placement workspace guides students to meet your programmatic requirements with:
-
Pre-application Tasks
-
Optimized Workflows
-
Streamlined Task Delegation
-
A User-Friendly Interface
-
Placement Extension and Withdrawal Options
-
Insight into Placement Information

A Process for Students
At its core, the placement process is a way for you to complete and collect the required documentation for student field work experiences. We understand that institutions have unique and diverse needs and means of guiding students through their pre-experience process. That’s why Tevera’s placement process is customizable to fit the workflow that best suits your needs:
Pre-application Tasks
Some universities may want to house tasks and documentation completed in preparation for placements alongside the student’s actual placement tasks and paperwork. No problem! Tevera’s pre-application tasks allow you to confirm your students’ readiness for placement with tasks such as clearance checks, academic prerequisite checks, or resume review, and supporting their placement search by reviewing work and volunteer history, accommodations and insurance, placement preferences, and more! Students can complete pre-application tasks in several ways, including uploading files, filling out forms, or even completing offline tasks that they verify in Tevera.

Optimized Workflows
Regardless of the workflow style that your institution utilizes, the placement process can be completed completely within Tevera.
Student-driven Placements
The “Student-driven” workflow places the onus of the placement process in the students’ hands. Students use this workflow to select their placement site from a list of pre-approved sites in your program’s Tevera database, or they can suggest a new site that your program has not worked with before. All processes will require program approval, so that you can be sure students are choosing to work with appropriate placement sites.
While your team may support students and provide guidance throughout the students’ journey to find and interview with a site, this workflow puts the responsibility on the students to record the sites and supervisors they will work with and complete paperwork related to those placements in Tevera. As a built in bonus, this workflow allows you to vet new placement sites and grow your program’s site list organically, as students suggest new sites.

Guided Placements
The “Guided” workflow falls between a student-driven process and a university-driven one. Universities vet sites and supervisors for their programs to create a pool of pre-approved sites which students are then able to rank into preference lists. From here, universities can either manually place students per preference request, or they can approve of the preferred placement and have students complete the necessary documentation.
This style of workflow is great for programs that look to provide students with the ability to customize their field experience while maintaining sites and supervisors that adhere to university standards and expectations.
Click to Enlarge
Assigned Placements
The “Assigned” workflow places the placement process in the hands of the administrator. In this style, program administrators use Tevera to assign placement sites and supervisors to students. Once the placement is assigned, the students can complete required paperwork related to their placement, such as placement agreements.
This style of workflow may be used by institutions with extensive site vetting processes or when site relationships are carefully balanced, requiring a more controlled process with more involvement from the field team.
Click to Enlarge
Streamlined Task Delegation
During the placement process, students, supervisors, and administrators alike can all collaborate on filling out, submitting, and approving documentation. Tevera not only provides a central platform for maintaining this documentation, but it also allows for tasks and paperwork to be delegated virtually, directly through Tevera or via an email link.
Students can initiate tasks, complete their part of the process, and then immediately delegate the document to their supervisor — all in just a few clicks. The supervisor can fill out a form via the email and it is immediately sent back to the student and/or administrator for final approval. And don’t worry about keeping track of it all – Tevera keeps students and program administrators informed about task progress along the way!
Placement Extension and Withdrawal
In some cases, a student’s original placement may need to be amended. Perhaps, a student needs extra time to fulfill hours requirements, or a student is switching supervisors due to an unforeseen event and needs to withdraw from their current supervisor. Your university is able to set up a standardized extension and withdrawal process so that students can submit requests to and complete tasks for updating their placements all within Tevera.
In the centralized workspace, these requests will be maintained in a streamlined workflow, so you and your students won’t have to worry about juggling around ad-hoc requests and tasks for updating their placement!
Click to Enlarge
Guided User Interface and Placement Insights
When a student opens their site placement workspace, a structured user interface will naturally guide students through their placement process. Placement workflows can be organized first by classification, such as practicum and internship or campus location, and then by step-by-step prompts for pre-application, site, and supervisor tasks each outfitted with status icons to ensure that students know what to do, when it’s being done, and when it’s completed!
Click to Enlarge
Once a student has completed their placement process, this information can be viewed in a coherent and cohesive interface in the “My Sites” tab of the student’s account. They can review their site and supervisor details, placement dates, and paperwork all in one place and for each site and supervisor they have had!
