1. Career Milestones:
2. Each scholar is required to complete Career Milestones throughout the duration of the program. These milestones were designed to prepare our scholars for their summer internship. Your role is to provide guidance as our scholars work towards their goal.
3. The Career Milestones serve as a curriculum for the program. The first half focuses on job searching skills and the second half prepares students for the working environment. As you can see on the webpage, there are two milestones to complete each month. Career Coaches and scholars are responsible for scheduling two interactions every month to review the topics and complete the respective milestones.
4. How to Prepare:
5. To help you and your scholar(s) prepare for each meeting, we have created resources for all Career Milestones. You can find the student and coach resources by clicking on the milestone name, which expands to reveal the description and relevant links. We strongly encourage you to utilize these resources before and during your interaction with your scholar(s). Students will be asked to review their resources before meeting with their Career Coaches.

1. We want to stress that your role is of mentorship and support. We never want you to feel that your job is to be their sole support pillar or to have all the answers. You have the full network of support offered by the ScholarMatch community. You are not alone in this work and if you ever encounter a problem you’re unfamiliar with, please reach out to us!
2. Scholar Expectations:
3. Students are expected to prepare for every meeting by reviewing the Student Resources for each Career Milestone, and completing assigned next steps from a previous interaction. After meeting with their Career Coaches, students need to track their progress by completing the Career Milestone completion forms.
