Gap Year 2.0
Web 2.0! Don’t you just love the way that computer types love adding numbers after names. Imagine…when you are born you are called Trevor, wait sorry, Trevor 1.0, then you go to primary school and you become Trevor 1.1, you graduate from high school and become known as Trevor 2.0 – you get the idea. I took a Gap Year in 1993 and I have recently looked at what the Gap Year industry is offering and I have to say that I was disappointed. While the rest of the world has been revolutionising; Gap Year organisations seem to be stuck on version 1.0…
Have you volunteered? Great! How was it? Have you volunteered again? If yes, was the basic service any different the second time around?
I would love to hear from anybody who has taken a Gap Year with an organisation and what you thought of the service, value for money and whether (if you experienced the services of two organisations) the service provided had improved since your first project…
Looking forward to hearing from you.
John
