As the administrator of an experience, you can access your experience’s settings under the "Settings" tab of your experience page:

For most settings, defaults exist which will work for the majority of educators, the majority of the time. As you use Riipen more and have more specific needs, you may choose to customize your experience more by leveraging these settings.

General

Experience

General settings for the experience.

  • Language
    Change the language of your experience. By default the language reflects the language of the portal, but you can manually change this. Changing this setting does not translate your experience, it only indicates to other users what language it's written in. Learn more.

Learners

General settings for learners in the experience.

  • Enable learner project management tools
    If this setting is enabled, learners will be able to join this experience and complete projects

Matchmaking

Marketplace

How the experience appears in the marketplace.

  • Close date

    A date which you want the experience to automatically close and no longer be open to match requests.

  • Is this experience available for new match requests?
    Indicates if the experience is still available for projects to match with, or if you are not currently looking for new matches. Closing the experience has no effect on existing matches or pending requests.

  • Projects wanted

    The total number of project you want to match with the experience. This helps companies know how many remaining spots are available to match with so try to put in a realistic number of projects you are hoping for.

  • Do you want this experience in the open marketplace?

    If set to "Yes", your experience will appear in the open marketplace. If "No", your experience will only appear in your portal's private marketplace.

Match requests

How the projects interact with the experience with match requests.

  • Number of days received requests will expire after

    You can change the number of days match requests will expire in for this experience. Remember that employers and projects are more likely to match with an experience if match requests are actioned swiftly, so don't set this expiry too high.

  • Maximum number of received pending requests

    If this value is set, the experience will automatically close once it has reached this number of pending received requests. You will be able to re-open the experience at any time.

  • Match request automated messages
    Automate and customize match request related messages. For example, customize the message you want to send to project administrators when they send this experience a match request and the message you want to send after the request is accepted.

  • Match request questions
    Customize the questions employers are asked when they request to match with your experience, or accept a request that you have sent. It is recommended to enable one or more custom questions that must be answered by employers when they send this project a match request to make sure you receive requests that meet your needs.
