Micro-Project: A Micro-Project involves 12 hours of work, and there are two project types namely, individual, or team based. All micro-projects are unpaid - learn more.

Micro-Placement: A Micro-Placement involves 15 hours of work, and gives students on-site access to a specific organization allowing them to observe, ask questions, and network.
What is the time commitment required of Micro-ExP participants?
On top of your Project/ Placement, you must attend the following sessions:
