Project description

In today’s Europe where digital skills in the labour market are so needed, the cultural and creative sectors must not be left behind; they need to catch up with the latest digital strategies to engage new audiences and be an active part of the economy.

The cultural and creative industries, including all aspects of heritage and art have been underexplored by a large part of the society for too long. They need motivated and skilled professionals who are able to modernise, digitise and improve their accessibility, promotion and outreach according to the demand of the new digital era. It is essential that the professionals in this sector are duly trained by educators equipped with new specific professional and digital skills.
