NUA GC A is an alumni directory and online community for Norwich University of the Arts. It began as a self-initiated brief which expanded out into a 12 person collaboration project which was a brilliant experience.
I saw a problem with the lack of easily accessible support for graduates and decided to do something about it. NUA GC A stands for Norwich University of the Arts Graphic Communication Alumni. It combines and streamlines all of the current support services into a single responsive website. The website is also designed to expand and roll out across all courses at NUA by replacing the GC with the corresponding letters to each course.
Graduates are given a personal profile onto which they can upload their portfolio, work experience, current job, contact details and more. Registered graduates can then gain access to all support services such as an exclusive Jobs and Competitions board, Employability Support, Access to the university shop and library and more.
To encourage contribution back to the community graduates can climb up the Alumni Levels. Starting at A3 with zero level of contribution and ending at A1 with an exceptional level. Posters are awarded to alumni when they achieve each level and each A3, A2 and A1 poster matches its paper size.
