Partnership agreement builder.

Genuine partnership starts by naming the things that usually stay implicit — who decides what, what each person brings, and how the student's contribution will actually be recognised. Fill it in and a charter drafts on the right.

Check-in & if it's not working

A review point and a way to raise concerns safely.

Recognition is what separates partnership from unpaid help. Naming it up front — credit, co-authorship, a stipend, a reference, a portable record — is an act of respect, and it's what makes a partnership ethical rather than extractive. It's also the principle behind NTLSN's Critical Learner Partnerships journal.
