This study examines student interaction with nonprofit organizations during experiential learning projects in nonprofit master's degree programs. The researchers conducted a pilot study interviewing faculty at a nonprofit master's program on the west coast. They found that students had frequent, collaborative interaction with organizations (Interaction D) to produce final products. This interaction facilitated student learning by preparing them for careers and developing professional skills. It also benefited organizations by creating useful, sustainable projects that continued beyond the course when organizations were invested in the process. The researchers plan to expand this pilot study to further explore perspectives from student participants.
