There is a need for interim milestone with students and a system for course correcting students that are not performing the work. I believe at every 1/3 of their 8 weeks or 80 hours that if they are not producing the comapny shoudl have an opportunity to cease the project with those that are just negligent in producing and communicating as required by the level up program. Mind you this is happening in only the minority of cases and always with those that are in groups of 2 to 4. the individual students in Level-up always are giving a great effort. I guess there is strengths in numbers when on a team it is easier to be irresponsible and feel ok with not hitting deadlines, missing meetings, ghosting employers and more. I think stopping teams is a consideration that should be investigated.

I love the idea of the Level Up program and enjoyed working with Seida. My issue was other respondents had poor communication with me after I accepted them. I never heard from any of them - not even a "decline".

I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have Sobia deliver this project for my business. She is extremely well training, knowledgeable, helpful and great to work with. I am excited about where I can go from here. My main suggestion is that the program provide a longer period of time for the work to be completed. I think the 80 hours could have been spread over 6 to 8 weeks for better impact. I had no idea this existed and would love to see programs like this offered again. it is very helpful to single person start up businesses like mine. Thank you very much!

The LEVEL UP program has been a game changer for Planetary CARE. The work performed by the interns enrolled with our teams has helped elevate us towards our mission to 'Build Planetary Resilience through Regeneration'. These paid internships brought highly qualified and motivated students to our projects, and for that we are very grateful. The Planetary CARE team took the time to carefully define the projects, deliverables and tasks to ensure that the interns would receive 'real life' work experience in exchange for their dedication and hard work. This is also the feedback we received from the interns after they delivered their final assignments. Thank you!
