General Field Experience Workflow

Field Experience Flow Chart 

1. Load foundational data, including:
   • Districts and Sites
   • Site Staff
   • Ensure student accounts are active
2. Build the following templates before attempting to place students or send binders:
   • Placement template
   • Binder Template
3. Place student(s) using the relevant placement template
4. Send binders to students. Binders must be aligned with a course during the sending process.
   • If you are sending binders before the semester begins and are unsure of the students’ finalized class schedules, you may place them all in a “dummy” course for the purpose of sending a binder. 
   • After you receive finalized student schedules, you may re-associate the students’ binders and placements with the correct course. See our article called Re-associate a Field Experience Placement with a Different Course for more details regarding this process.
