Interactions Tool

The Unifrog Interactions tool is a tool for both students and teachers. For teachers, it’s a good way to track evidence of all careers guidance interactions; one-to-one careers meetings, employer encounters and visits to universities and FE institutions - for each of the 8 Gatsby Benchmarks. The student side, is a live feed of all these interactions, where they can see at-a-glance which interactions they’ve had and what’s coming up.
