How Silver Cohort works
A transparent, step-by-step breakdown of how we set up your placement, manage the daily work, and build your career assets — with no surprises.
Step-by-step process
Registration & verification
Day 0You sign up with your college email and complete onboarding with your fellowship details. We verify your email before you can access the dashboard.
Profile walkthrough & assessment
Day 0–1Inside your dashboard, you will access our step-by-step preparation materials. Our team provides direct support and walkthroughs to ensure you easily pass the initial entry assessment and activate your program profile.
Management setup & authorization
Day 1Before active contract operations begin, you review and sign a one-page Management Agreement. This explicitly documents your consent for our remote technical team to handle daily project tasks on your behalf, records your IP and timestamp, and outlines the exact scope of our work.
Workflow allocation & planning
Day 2–4Our operational team conducts a full review of the fellowship requirements. We match your placement with dedicated remote technical experts and build an execution roadmap tailored specifically to the project's milestones.
Active project execution
Week 1–3We implement the day-to-day workload systematically. Our global team handles 100% of the active project tasks, data entries, and technical requirements. All progress is logged, timestamped, and visible directly from your dashboard.
Ongoing delivery & payouts
MonthlyAfter the initial setup, we move into a steady monthly management cadence. Our backend team continues delivering on active contracts, your professional resume is updated with live project data, and your 10% net payout distribution is processed on a fixed date each cycle.
How we handle program management
Safety is not an afterthought — it is the foundation.
Complete transparency
We never modify details without a logged record. Only our vetted, authorized team handles the active workflows. Every action taken on a project is audit-logged with a timestamp.
Secure dashboard
Your Silver Cohort login is separate from Handshake. Use a strong password and reset it anytime from the sign-in page.
Revoke access instantly
Cancel your management agreement or revoke operational authorization directly from your dashboard at any time. Our remote team stops work instantly with no hidden cancellation fees.
You own everything
We manage the day-to-day execution on your behalf, but your program placement, student identity, and professional credits remain entirely yours. We exist purely to handle the heavy lifting.
No upfront fee. Cancel anytime.
