For the profession
Practitioners, faculty, associations, companies, foundations, technique groups, certification bodies. Everyone here can reach a student earlier than they currently do.
Almost none of it costs anything, and none of it is a sponsorship.
Pick what you are
Nobody ever taught you how to be observed. Three sessions on receiving a student well, and a place in the network students are matched through.
Students don't know your certification exists until after they graduate. They've never heard of your organization. Not because they aren't interested — because nobody showed them.
A neutral account of the path, written by someone inside the profession rather than by a school with an enrollment target.
What this is, what it asks of your institution, and what it adds at the points where students usually lose the thread.
If you only do one thing
Most students form their entire picture of this profession from the one or two practices they happen to encounter. The Kaleidoscope is where the rest of it becomes visible — and the parts they never hear about are exactly the parts nobody thinks to mention.
Smaller doors, and every one of them is a real thing someone has done.
The founding cohort of thirty-three students starts in September. Nobody has finished it, so there is nothing here claiming what it did for the last group — there wasn't one.
What exists today is thirteen years of recorded conversations, a directory with one published entry and several hundred permissions still out, and a program about to run for the first time. Everything on this page is an invitation to be part of that rather than a claim about it.
