i+ Outdoor Information Kiosks                          

Connexions

now on outdoor i+ kiosks

We are always looking for new ways of providing information and advice to young people.

We also try to extend access to make our services available at more locations even when our centres are closed.

This is now a reality!  Using a network of information kiosks a number of our services can be accessed 24 hours a day at 52 different locations throughout Tyne and Wear!

Above: Maggi Hunt launches the vacancy service on the i+ kiosk network with the help of local youngsters.

 

What is available?

A Connexions button like this one appears on the screen of each kiosk and gives quick access to the Connexions Information pages.

 

        Using a kiosk you can:

• Find a job using our vacancy system
• Contact us using a simple enquiry form
  to ask for information, help or advice
• Quickly find your local Connexions Centre

Information can be printed so you can take it away with you for reference.
