Resources

Review these 3 resources to help you get the most out of your experience as a Career Coach within the ScholarMatch community.

Coaching Logs

After each interaction, we request that both Coaches and students capture notes from the meeting. Career Coaches complete a Career Coaching Log to share takeaways from the meeting and students’ next steps. This will help us better understand our students’ needs and is a great opportunity for you to provide feedback on how we can improve our program.

Meeting Guide

We created a meeting guide to help you get the most out of each coaching interaction with your student! On the meeting guide, you’ll find a list of coaching questions to help guide you through a typical conversation with your student(s).

Crisis Management & Emergency Protocol

Although it is not a common occurrence, our students may describe or exhibit behaviors that may concern you. Please use this guide to identify and address emergency situations.
