Connexions Northamptonshire is keen to support schools, colleges
and other institutions in the provision of Connexions information
for young people. This is a responsibility of the Access Team.
In 2007/8 institutions have been allocated funding through
the Connexions Library Initiative (CLI). Funding can be claimed
provided the institution has met the key essential standards
as set out in the annual audit document. Your Personal Adviser,
working with the Careers Co-ordinator or librarian should
carry out audits.
Connexions Northamptonshire uses Prospects as a distributor
of resources to handle all orders, and is able to pass on
a discount on orders placed within the specified time frame.
For 2007/8 there is no requirement for schools and colleges
to match fund their CLI allocation.
Connexions Northamptonshire also hosts a Resources
Day when Prospects and other organisations display a range
of products which can be helpful when selecting products to
order with CLI funding. This year it was held on 3rd May at
King’s Park Conference Centre in Northampton.
If you wish to discuss any aspect of the CLI process, please
