Teens connect to a brighter future

A new service has been launched to help teenagers in Tyne and Wear access the latest training possibilities, job vacancies and advice. Connexions Tyne and Wear, a support service for young people aged 13-19, has launched a new service linking mobile phones to its range of information and services, just as teenagers receive their exam results. The service lets young people find job vacancies, advice on completing application forms and CVs, and information on interview techniques, through their mobile phones.

Carolyn Reynolds, Connexions communications manager, said: “Our website is the most popular in Tyne and Wear for young people seeking information and advice on a wide range of career and lifestyle issues.”

David Lightfoot, Connexions e-access manager, said: “Technology moves on really quickly and we’ve always tried to be ahead of the game. Young people need speedy access to information at a low cost and the new service provides all this and more.”

To view the site, visit www.connexions-tw.co.uk using an internet equipped mobile phone.
