Innovative Multimedia Learning CD ROM For Disadvantaged Young People.

21k Media Ltd, based in North London, has developed an interactive multimedia "Career Paths" CD ROM aimed at disadvantaged young people.

(PRWEB) October 18, 2004 -- The transition to adulthood is difficult for many young people who have left school and are not quite sure what career options are open to them. It can also be difficult if they have not gained the necessary qualifications that they need to compete for the jobs they want to pursue.

21k Media Ltd, based in North London, has developed an interactive multimedia Career Paths" CD ROM aimed at those young people who need help in developing their confidence and making a decision on a career option and how to take the first step to obtaining a good job.

21k Medias Managing Director, Colin Lee Own says,

Media technology and animation are used, in an interactive and engaging way, to help young people who have left school and need to select their preferred career options. Career Paths provides vital knowledge as well as ensuring an enjoyable and effective experience for the maximum benefit of its users."

Career Paths has already gained appreciation by individuals looking for jobs during our research phase. I found this CD exciting to use, the sections were easily accessible. I was able to go directly to what I wanted to find out in my own time, without any pressure from peers", said Anthony Gibson who has been unemployed during the past two years and has recently found employment following use of Career Paths CD ROM.

Other young people found Career Paths was fun, exciting and extremely easy to use. They felt that this product fitted well into their lifestyles as they had grown up with multimedia games and used the Internet to access information.

Career Paths aims to assist individuals to enhance their job search skills. They explore available career and education options by using, interactively, a combination of multimedia techniques such as animation, illustration, and sound.

Users will be guided through modules such as Career Planning, Creating an effective CV, Researching Job Opportunities, Completing an Application Form, Job Interview Techniques and Routes to entering Further Education, Vocational Training or setting up a business.
