Who is in the Agency?
Students actively enrolled in the Learning Design & Technology (LDT) graduate program. Typically, working adult learners transitioning into an instructional design career. |
Why?
Doing is learning. The best way to hone knowledge, skills, and abilities is through hard fun with experiential project based learning and applied learning theory. This is that. |
Is this for-credit?
Students may to take INTE6930: Internship in affiliation with their Agency work, but it is not required. You may review the syllabus here – pre-approval from the instructor is required. This course may be repeated up to 3 times for 9 credits toward the MA degree, with facutly advisor approval. |
Is this employment?
This is not employment. Our purpose is experiential field based learning for LDT students. |
Who is the boss?
The project. As LDT professionals, all parties are responsible for their own work, responsible to project timelines, deliverables, and partners. |
What is the work schedule?
Work is part-time, asynchronish, and remote – like an online class. Students work from home on their own time and on their own computers, with occassional web conference meetings to synchronize, check-in, and plan. |
How are projects assigned?
The Agency works with & between clients and students to arrange an ideal match for all parties. We weigh student availability, skillset, growth interests, and grit — relative to project timelines, needs, and expectations. |
What about tech?
Most work is accomplished like LDT coursework – on the student’s own computer and with CU/program provisioned software. If a project requires something additional – the Agency will provide it. |
What about the money?
Clients may purchase project-hours at $40/hour – flat rate. Project-hours bank with the Agency until they are used. Students track project-hours which are deducted from the project’s balance. Monies are split 50/50 between Agency operational costs and student scholarship funds. |
