CSC Alumni Association Digital Toolkit
Throughout 2024, the CSC is celebrating 65 years of delivering Commonwealth Scholarships to candidates of outstanding academic achievement and leadership ability.
We would like CSC alumni associations to promote the anniversary on your channels and through your events and activities. To support this, we have developed a 65th anniversary toolkit containing a timeline of key activities, a logo package and digital resources, and guidance on how to use these.
Guidance for Alumni Associations on using the digital toolkit
- Please ensure you have read the guidance document above and the CSC visual identity/branding guidelines document below in full before using the materials.
- Please only use the toolkit and branded items during the anniversary year (until end of 2024).
- You should only use the toolkit for activities and events in relation to the CSC and its anniversary and for alumni association purposes only.
- You must not edit or distort the toolkit materials or share these with other organisations.
The digital toolkit includes:
- CSC visual identity/branding guidelines document
- 65th Anniversary logo (right click and save as image)
