For college and bootcamp marketing programs

Help your students show employers the work behind their projects

With a class code, marketing students turn a course project into a published case study that shows their strategy, their decisions and their own part in the work.

Good course work rarely reaches employers

Course projects often end up in a slide deck or a shared drive, where a hiring manager never sees the thinking behind them. Pholeo gives students a structured way to show what they did and how they did it.

How it fits your course

  1. Start from work they've already done.

    Students use a campaign or project from your course. There's no extra assignment.

  2. Answer guided prompts.

    The case study creator walks them through the audience, the strategy, the decisions they made and what they did themselves.

  3. Publish and share.

    Each student publishes a case study with a link they can send to employers.

What students get

Each student in your class gets a code for a complimentary Job Search Pass: 120 days of Premium features from when they redeem it. It's free for students. There's no card and nothing renews. When it ends, their account moves to the free plan and nothing is deleted.

  • 120 days of Premium, from when they redeem
  • Free for students
  • No card, nothing renews

Built for classroom use

  • Class codes are for classes where using Pholeo is optional for students and isn't graded. It isn't an endorsement of your course or institution, and we won't use your institution's name or logo in our marketing without your permission.
  • Before they publish, students see guidance on client confidentiality and team credit.
  • Pholeo accounts are for people 18 and over, or the age of majority where they live (19 in British Columbia). Class codes are for classes where every student meets that age, and you'll confirm this when you request codes.
  • Instructors and schools don't get access to student accounts or unpublished work. Each student decides what to publish.
  • We don't tell schools which students created an account or redeemed a code. If we share anything about a class, it's only overall numbers, and only when enough students are counted that no one can be identified.

How to get codes

Tell us about your class and we'll review your request. If it's a fit, we'll reply with your codes and the redemption dates. We review every request ourselves, and codes aren't sent out automatically.

We use these details only to review your request, reply to you and set up codes for your class. We won't add you to our newsletter or send you marketing email unless you ask us to.

Questions from instructors

Which courses is this for?

Project-based marketing courses in college, degree and bootcamp programs, where students already have a campaign or project to write up.

Does it cost students anything?

No. The complimentary Job Search Pass is free, and students don't need a card.

What happens to students' portfolios after 120 days?

Their account moves to the free plan and nothing is deleted. One portfolio stays unlocked (their published one, if they have one), and the others are unpublished and locked. Premium tools switch off.

Can students under 18 take part?

No. Class codes are for classes where every student is 18 or older, or the age of majority where they live (19 in British Columbia).

What do you share with the school?

We don't tell schools which students created an account or redeemed a code. If we share anything about a class, it's only overall numbers, and only when enough students are counted that no one can be identified.
