IPT Tutorial for Agencies and Field Supervisors
Agency detail page
Now that you have set up your Supervisor Detail page, your agency must set up the Agency Detail page. This page provides vital information to prospective students as they begin researching their practicum possibilities. It can assist them them in finding the agency that best meets their interests and goals. It’s in your agency’s best interest to fill out as much information as possible in order to attract potential interns whose interests and abilities are aligned with the goals of your agency.
Any field instructor may set themselves up to edit the Agency Detail page. However, since most agencies have multiple supervisors, it's recommended that your agency designates one person with the responsibility of inputing and maintaining the Agency Detail page. To do this, the person, or persons, who will be maintaining your Agency Page must set their permissions (check the box in their supervisor page) to edit agency details.
The BSU Social Work department fills in only the name of the agency when creating the agency account. You are free to change the name of the agency as you fill out the contact information to something that best suits your agency. Any information submitted on this page will be available to all BSU students serving in practicum so the phone, contact, and e-mail fields should reflect an agency representative either in charge of interns or someone who can refer students to the appropriate person.
