Share this month’s student newsletter to encourage students to reflect on what they’ve learned throughout the spring term, the experiences they’ve gained, and whether their career goals have shifted or become more defined. It also reminds students that they may now be a very different candidate than they were at the beginning of the year, making this a great time to update their Parker Dewey profile to better reflect their growth and evolving interests. |

Have Use-it-or-Lose-It Funds?
As the budget year comes to a close, if you have remaining funds that need to be allocated, consider a Micro-Internship program. Programs are a scalable way to provide paid Micro-Internships exclusively for your students, engage employers of all sizes and locations, and stretch your budget to support as many students as possible.
This approach not only creates exclusive, hands-on opportunities for students but also helps employers better understand the value and impact of Parker Dewey Micro-Internships.
You can learn more about programs and see examples here. If you’re interested in exploring this option, our team would be happy to connect and discuss what it could look like for your institution.
