What are exam preparation bundles?

Everyone who has ever taken an exam in the Netherlands knows what an exam preparation bundle is. They are bundles of past exams and teacher tutorials that you use to practice in order to get your degree. Very handy! The concept was devised by the educational publishing house ThiemeMeulenhoff and is as simple as it is effective.

At the moment, all bundles are still published in paper format, but in the future digital versions will also be brought out. Revising these bundles every year was a major challenge for our editorial team. Ready to amaze!

From pure chaos to clear structure

Altogether, ThiemeMeulenhoff publishes 41 exam preparation bundles every year. In the past, the bundles were scattered among various typesetters, so the layout was inconsistent. We saw opportunities there! The first thing to do was to reformat the existing bundles to create a uniform structure.

All the elements were styled in the same way to make the conversion to digital easier later on. The next step was the actual revision itself, something that has to be done every year. Our team makes the necessary corrections, adds the exam from the previous year and deletes the oldest exam. And there you are.

Why was Crius Group the right choice for ThiemeMeulenhoff?

ThiemeMeulenhoff was already familiar with Crius Group. We are their strategic partner for the layout of their books, mainly because we help them with the transformation to digital publishing.

“They process the content efficiently. Add to that meeting deadlines and the quality that they provide and you have the ideal partner for a one-stop shop”, says Marcel Sikking, Project Manager at ThiemeMeulenhoff.

A satisfied customer is worth two, they sometimes say. And are you one, ThiemeMeulenhoff?

The biggest advantage of this change? Speed

“It is not easy to convince everyone of a ‘next step’ while it is still not clear exactly why we are doing this. But now that the conversion is complete, everyone is satisfied.

We get down to work on the exam preparation bundles far more calmly now. We have a single supplier who starts from the correct files. In addition, we can respond quickly to market demands relating to new ways of publishing.”
