CPC has won a major contract to provide multi-media production and packaging services to Computeach, the UK’s largest supplier of IT training by distance learning. CPC is providing DVDs, CDs and cassettes to support the Computeach ‘There is more to life’ product which is being promoted through a major national TV advertising campaign. With production volumes running into many tens of thousands, the contract is worth over £50,000 to CPC.

Based in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, CPC provide one-stop-shop services for producing CDs, DVDs and other media, with design, print and distribution services. Computeach needed a reliable, fast response service to produce regular runs of up to 15,000 DVDs to meet demand from TV and other promotional campaigns. CPC are also producing packaged cassette tapes and supplying CDs to meet Computeach requirements for different formats.

The Computeach ‘There is more to life’ campaign encourages adults to teach themselves new skills and open up alternative career opportunities as a result. TV advertisements depict people unhappy in their current jobs who desire a more fulfilling life through a better job.

"We have in house CD duplication and printing facilities, but CPC has become an important business partner helping us to extend our media formats and fulfil higher volumes on demand. With plans to expand into the corporate market, CPC has a lot to offer including innovative packaging and promotional products that will boost our presence and support business growth in this key area" says Darren Francis, Computeach Group Marketing Manager.

Specialising in the skills most in demand by employers, Computeach offers a full learning service to individuals and organisations and trains around 30,000 people each year. Learners range from people undertaking a career change to employees improving existing skills within the IT industry, as well as developing basic IT user and management skills using materials available through learndirect.
