Supervisor Workshops

The SEE program supports supervisors of student employees to ensure they have the resources they need to create a supportive and inclusive working environment. All of the following workshops are offered virtually, unless otherwise designated.

 

Required Workshops

The following workshops are required for all SEE supervisors:  

  • SEE Onboarding Presentation: This session offers an introduction to the Student Employment Experience (SEE) program and provides resources and next steps for supervisors of student employees to fully engage in SEE. 
  • SEE Learning Assessment (SEELA) Workshop: This workshop is designed to help SEE supervisors understand the Student Employment Experience Learning Assessment (SEELA) and how to interpret the assessment results. SEE supervisors can then use this information to better support their student employees and inform their Guided Reflection on Work (GROW) conversations. 
  • Supervising Student Employees: This workshop covers foundational principles of supervision through the lens of college student employment. Through learning evidence-based practices, and sharing challenges and strategies with others, participants will walk away with practical solutions for supervising students in their own context. Learn to set reasonable yet challenging expectations and offer effective feedback.

 

Optional Workshops

The following workshops are also offered, but not required. They can be attended by either the SEE supervisor themselves, or another representative in their office/department:  

  • Top Tools for a Successful Difficult Conversation: Supervisors will learn how to navigate difficult conversations using two critical skill sets. Participants will practice identifying what are facts and what are narratives along with how to create and reestablish safe spaces for open dialogue, with their student or other staff member. 
  • Supervisors’ Introduction to Handshake: In this 45-minute session, supervisors will learn how to create their Handshake accounts. This interactive workshop will provide supervisors with tools, tips, and tricks, for using Handshake to support student employees, and to market and post their positions.  

While SEE supervisors only need to attend these trainings once, they are welcome to attend workshops repeatedly if they would like to revisit the information. For questions, additional support or consultation, please email SEE @osu.edu

SEE Supervisor Monthly Meetings

We will be holding optional monthly meetings for SEE supervisors during the academic year on the second Thursday of every month to connect with each other and talk about a specific topic. Please pay special attention to the time of each meeting, as the time will vary every month to hopefully allow all SEE supervisors to join at least once a semester.

March 13, 2025 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM

If you require an accommodation such as live captioning or interpretation to participate in any of these events, please contact the SEE Team at see@osu.edu. Requests made at least one week in advance will generally allow us to provide seamless access, but the university will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.
