Get Prepared
Congrats on taking the first steps towards your education goals. Have you received your approval email from Guild? If not, don’t worry, you should receive an email within 7 to 10 business days of submitting your Guild application.
Here are your next steps to completing your program through Pathstream:
1 — Understand the process
Review the steps that are required for you to receive your tuition assistance. Tuition assistance is the word that we use to describe the portion of your tuition that’s covered by your employer. In other words, it’s the “benefit” that you receive when you enroll in a qualified program.
If you have previous education outside of the U.S. (i.e., foreign credentials), there aren't extra requirements to complete at Pathstream.
2 — Starting your learning Journey
To confirm your participation and keep your spot, complete your first lesson within 14 calendar days of your official program start date.
Watch for your Access communications
During the first week of your start month, you'll receive an email from Pathstream with a link to access your course — a head start before your official program start date. Check your spam folder if you don't see it. If you haven't heard from Pathstream, contact help@pathstream.com.
Complete your first lesson within 14 days
To confirm your participation and keep your spot, you'll need to complete your first lesson within 14 calendar days of your start date. If you'd like to leave the program, you can also do so during this window by contacting help@pathstream.com.
3 — Keep in touch with your Guild Growth Coach
Soon after you’ve enrolled, you should receive an email introducing you to your Guild Growth Coach. Here are some examples of how your Guild Growth Coach can support you:
Goal setting
Career exploration
Challenging and shifting perspectives
Accountability and responsibility
Navigating obstacles
Self-discovery
Creating a schedule to help with balancing multiple priorities
