Remember: You may do multiple activities to meet the time requirement. Each activity requires registration and verification on the CEL-1 website. You must complete the online process for ALL CEL-1 activities: It is the only way central records will receive and record the credit.
1. Log in and browse the database at http://CEL1.hampshire.edu OR if you have been involved with a great CEL-1 activity not on the website, please direct your sponsor to the Sponsor Guidelines to get the activity in the CEL-1 database.
2. Add activities that interest you to “My Favorites” by clicking the yellow star (
) next to the activity OR register immediately by clicking the red heart (
). Review the details and availability of activities BEFORE you register. Contact the sponsor at this point to find out meeting times/places, etc.!
3. REGISTER for the activity by going to the "Registration" tab. Click on the activity from your Favorites list on the left sidebar (
). Answer the prompt questions. This will initiate an automatic email to your sponsor for approval.
4. Engage this great opportunity! Document and reflect along the way! Keep track of your hours!
5. AFTER THE ACTIVITY, do your VERIFICATION (under the "Verification" tab). Write a brief narrative about the work and the number of credit hours you spent working on the activity. This will initiate an automatic email to your sponsor for approval.
6. Use the Reflection Worksheet (under the "Reflection" tab) as a guide to writing about your CEL-1 experiences. Write often and save your work. This narrative will be available to you as you write your Division I Retrospective at the end of Div I.
** Be in communication with your sponsor(s) and tutorial advisor throughout this process.
** Your sponsor must approve your registration AND verification forms.
