The Connexions
initiative is designed to get young people between the ages of 13 and
19 into further education. A personal adviser helps support them in the
decision making process, encouraging and assisting them to seek appropriate
training.
ACTION COMMUNICATIONS, working with our client VSU, was asked to devise
a manual to be provided to the 250 personal advisers, specifically dealing
with volunteering opportunities in Kent.
The project
involved working to a timetable (including the Easter Weekend), devising
a grid before all parameters had been defined, re-making complete sections
and holding open sections for late submissions.
Production included die-cutting, hand collation and assembly and pre-sampling
various binders and
design solutions.
The finished product proved a valuable resource for the recipients and the
content remains available on the Connexions Kent and Medway website.
