Paint the Bit – Rethinking artistic and creative competences and job profiles in a renewed labour market and social trends

When thinking about future perspectives for the Cultural and Creative Sector (CCS) beyond the COVID-19 crisis, a return to the ‘old normal’ is not considered a viable option. Given the vulnerabilities that characterised the sectors already pre COVID-19, the crisis has provided a unique momentum to reflect on predominant structures and practices and to experiment with possible alternatives, often in intra- and inter-sectoral collaboration.

The Paint the Bit project aims to strengthen Cultural and Creative sector professionals’ skills for a digital, innovative and inclusive production and distribution in renewed labour opportunities. New job profiles will be identified and a VET curricula will be defined to better respond to the current market framework of artistic and creative production  in the era of digital transition. A blended training and capacity building path for CCS professionals aims to reinforce their digital and transferrable competences, so that they can increase their efficiency and acquire career adaptive competences.
