To **coordinate internship placements and supervisors**, register each placement with the student, host company, supervisor, dates and required documents, follow it through phases and collect supervisor evaluations at defined points.

In **Jestor**, placements, companies and supervisors are connected, so coordinators see every internship on one board.

## Why are internships hard to coordinate?

Internships involve the school, the student and the host company, with agreements, schedules and evaluations. Each piece is handled by email.

Documents expire, evaluations are not returned and coordinators lose track of active placements.

## What problems does placement coordination solve?

- Missing agreements or documents
- Supervisors not identified for each intern
- Evaluations not returned on time
- No overview of active placements
- Students without support during the internship

## How do I coordinate internships in Jestor?

1. **Create a placements table** linked to students, companies and supervisors.
2. **Attach agreements** and required documents.
3. **Define phases**: Matching, Agreement signed, Active, Evaluation, Completed.
4. **Send evaluation forms** to supervisors at the defined points.
5. **Review a dashboard** of active placements and pending evaluations.

| Phase            | Key requirement                |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------ |
| Matching         | Company and supervisor defined |
| Agreement signed | Documents attached             |
| Active           | Start date recorded            |
| Evaluation       | Supervisor form returned       |
| Completed        | Hours and grade recorded       |

## How do I make evaluations easier for supervisors?

A short online form, sent by link, is easier to complete than a document by email.

Answers go straight to the placement record, with no retyping.

## Why use Jestor for internship coordination?

- **Connected records**: student, company and supervisor linked.
- **Documents attached**: agreements stored with each placement.
- **Evaluation forms**: supervisors respond from any device.
- **Board view**: every placement and its phase in one place.

## What else helps you coordinate internship placements and supervisors?

- Student check-ins during the internship are useful too. A short form every few weeks lets interns report how the placement is going, so coordinators can act early if the activities are not related to the course or support is lacking.
- These answers also help evaluate host companies for future placements.
- Host company records also accumulate useful history over time, showing which partners offer good learning experiences and deserve priority in the next placement round.

This setup helps you coordinate internship placements and supervisors without lost paperwork.
