Community Partner Onboarding
The MSU Center for Community Engaged Learning (CCEL) has launched a new platform, Spartans Volunteer! This platform is a place for community partners to post community-engaged learning opportunities, engage with well-oriented college student volunteers, and provide a space for reflection and evaluation of the learning experience. This platform will provide broader access to MSU students, as well as improved student-community partner interactions.
