Sector Insight:
GETTING BACK TO THE NEWNORMAL
University life has never been so challenging. Students from all over the globe are researching your university with some key questions. Is it safe, will I still get the same quality of education and learning and will I still get the traditional university experience? How do you re-open and keep all the plates spinning? How do you implement an efficient testing schedule? How do you manage university led accommodation and reduce cross contamination in shared facilities? How do you deliver on expectations? How do you ensure safety whilst encouraging socialisation? Return to in-person teaching whilst reducing contact? You’re not alone and we don’t mean in an extra-terrestrial kind of way! What if, the university brand and all your artwork could be seamlessly transferred on to face masks, course literature, welcome packs, banners, giant foam hands, graduation certificates, t-shirts, signage... What if, you could work with a supplier with 40 years of experience. A supplier that understands University life. The challenges, the opportunities. A supplier that will work alongside you to get your university as close to normal as possible.
Welcome to Graphic Arts Group. A trusted supplier to Higher Education.

REGISTRATION IS A MAMMOTH TASK
If you opt for table top sneeze screens or branded fixed screens, social distancing measures will be easy to implement . Queue management, clear signs, antimicrobial pens and availability of branded hand sanitiser will reassure students and university staff. Welcome week is one of the most anticipated activities in a students calendar! It may need tweaking a little this year so considered wayfinding signage and social distancing measures will help things go smoothly without compromising on the experience. Dress to impress Imagine the roads leading to your campus framed with flags, floor graphics directing students in, posters and signs leading in from public transport hubs with ‘helpers’ in branded clothing at key locations. The excitement builds, the buzz gets louder and you’re walking in a sea of people. You feel like you belong.

Creating a welcome pack that heroes your course and gives prospective students all the information they need can be done easily and with personalised items to give your course the edge! Serious and fun! Promoting a medical course? How about a heart shaped stress ball? English, try a note book with quotes from the all time greats dotted through it, Engineering? A branded technical ruler will be kept long after studies are finished. What about a rubix cube with key information on? Kit business students out with a conference folder, pen and note book, get them off on the right foot for their professional career. Course Stationery - wire bound books, wall planners with key information or learning cards, anything that helps students to learn will boost your results. The options are only limited by your imagination!

CAN YOU HEARME? HELLO? WHAT ABOUT NOW?
Zoom calls! They kept us connected, gave us rabbit faces, maverick pets on keyboards and introduced us to family life - unintentionally of course! As vital as it has been to keep us in touch with loved ones, work and learning, Zoom has not replaced our need to be present with people. In-person teaching, online, virtual, remote, whatever you call it, blended learning is likely to be adopted by HE more readily. Enabling community can be done by anyone. Linking campus students and on-line students together will build community around your course. Ensure everyone stays connected with smart tech. From beds to benches, libraries to coffee shops, you can ensure connections have the best sound and quality whilst also showing off your course logo.

GRADUATION
An emotional day for most! The end of eras and new chapters are beginning. Send your students off with the best memories and keepsakes. Just move this way a bit, wait for that man to move, smile!! Treasured for ever! A graduation photograph will be pride of place at home and plastered all over social, after all, your students have worked hard to get here and deserve the hero status. Make sure your university or your course is in on the action with must have backdrops. From flower walls to neon signs, giant letters to roller banners. Giving your students the perfect photo opportunity will make sure your university is seen long after they graduate.
