What employers see
One page that proves what a student actually did
Every project a student finishes and chooses to share sits at one web address with their name on it. An employer opens it and reads the work, the marks, and who signed off. No login. No call to your office.
Why it matters
Your students leave. The proof should not.
A transcript says a student passed. It does not show the work.
This page does. It shows the task they were given, the work they handed in, the marks, and the name of the working professional who checked it.
That is something your placement team can put in front of an employer. And it keeps working long after the student has gone.
What your college gets
- Placement. Real work to show an employer, not a CV and a promise.
- Employers. They check it themselves in seconds. They do not have to ring you.
- Staff. Fewer verification calls and fewer letters to write.
- Alumni. The page still works years later, and you do not host it.
What it does
One address, and every project under it
A page is a list. Each item is one project the student really did.
Open an item and you get the whole thing: the task that was set, the scorecard it was marked against, the three scores, the professional who checked it, and your college confirming the mark is right.
Records from two different colleges sit in the same list. There is nothing to sign in to.
How it works
It starts when the student says so
- Nothing is public by default. A student who never shares anything has no page and no address. There is no setting to hunt for.
- Sharing one project creates the page. There is no sign up form and no registration step.
- Every project links back to your copy. Anyone can open both and compare them.
- If you take your copy down, the record stays. It says plainly that your copy is no longer there, so a reader knows what they are holding.
- Turning sharing off stops the link working. Your copy of the assessment stays with you.
Graduation changes nothing. Nothing on the page is issued by your college, so nothing on it expires when enrolment does. A student who studies at two colleges ends up with one page holding both.
Who holds what
Why the student holds the address, and you hold the mark
Your college keeps the assessment and confirms the mark is right. That does not change, and the student cannot touch it.
What the student holds is the address, and the choice about who sees it.
That is on purpose. A page hosted by one college can only ever show one part of a person, and college web addresses move and break. This one does not depend on either.
Limits
What this page is not
Nothing on it is written by the student. No summary, no headline, no list of skills they typed in themselves. Every line came from work your staff approved.
It is not a portfolio site and not a job board. No uploads, no design choices, no apply button, no messaging, and no way to contact the student through us.
