NEW Pro Bono OR Project: Acknowledging Youths CIC








Acknowledging Youths Project
Activity Impact Measurement Analysis

Project:
Measure the impact of activities and services Acknowledging Youths CIC provide, in support of gaining funding and creating a strategy for continuous improvement.

Project description:
Acknowledging Youths CIC (Community Interest Company) support young people experiencing disadvantage to attain employment. This support includes training (assertiveness, time management, customer care, communication) CV writing, and interview skills. This service is achieved primarily through government and community based funding.
In any competitive environment, it is important to be able to provide details of demonstrable services and quantify their impact.

Acknowledging Youths CIC has collated data from all its activities. This data can be used to support bidding for future funding and also to support the development and growth of their strategic plan.

A volunteer is required to conduct an impact measurement analysis of the existing data.
The analysis will provide quotable evidence that can be used to support future funding bids. The analysis will also provide insights that will inform and develop their strategic plan by highlighting areas of strength and providing a focus on the areas that would benefit from improvement.

The volunteer will be required to provide a report detailing the analytical techniques used, the criteria defined to assess the impact and the outcomes of the assessment.

Time commitment: 5 – 7 days 

Location: The project requires two visits to the London office located on Aylesford St, Pimlico, London. These visits would be, firstly, to launch the project and collect the data, and secondly, to provide the deliverables. The organisation is willing to work flexibly (e.g. via Skype calls).  All other work can be done remotely.  

If you feel you are able to offer your assistance please complete the application form and return along with your CV to amy.hughes@theorsociety.com by Friday 31st August.

The OR Society fully supports equal opportunities. As such, we welcome applications from the partially sighted or blind, or those with disabilities.

Information about the organisation:
Acknowledging Youths (AY) CIC are a pioneer socially responsible training and recruitment service. Set up in 2012, AY CIC was created to support young people experiencing disadvantage and to assist them in attaining employment. This support includes training (assertiveness, time management, customer care, communication), CV writing, and interview skills. Their approach has always been personal; offering a tailored one to one approach to enable the individual to work through what their motivations and barriers are and identifying what they need to do next to move forward. AY Group understands the barriers many young people face – mainly because of Chief Executive Danny’s own challenges in life – and therefore successfully engages those most vulnerable. Since 2012 the company has evolved so that Acknowledging Youths CIC exists to support and develop young people ready for transition into adulthood and AY Recruitment CIC exists to prepare people more specifically for employment using accredited training, volunteering/
