Apprentice is a mobile application designed by university professors for internships and other field experiences.
Our own experiences as supervisors, professionals, and former students were central to creating a mobile solution that made internship supervision more efficient. In other words, we became tired of using numerous software applications (online file sharing, third party email, spreadsheets, mapping, etc.) to do the job of facilitating internship supervision when we can design a solution that allows supervisors to use just ONE application!
WHY APPRENTICE?
Apprentice centralizes the aspects of supervising interns that used to give us a headache. It’s a one-stop spot for collecting paperwork and recordings, disseminating readings, sharing resources, and tracking student progress. It also helps us better plan site visits, communicate with site supervisors, and run reports required to keep up with accreditation requirements and program goals.
Most important, is what Apprentice can do for students. Apprentice offers transparency so students can track their own progress through evaluations, hours logged, and goal setting. Its ease of use allows them to utilize students’ own mobile devices to manage every part of their internship experiences.
