A Bigger Future 2 - the training and education plan for the UK Film Industry

Skillset works towards ensuring the UK film workforce is as highly skilled as possible so the industry can continue to compete successfully in the global marketplace.
We aim to plug skills gaps in the UK film industry both now and in the forseeable future -and enable the most talented people to have access to the training they need.
After research and consultation with industry, we use these findings to implement solutions around gaps in skills and training. This means the workforce can respond to the various changes it faces, such as new technologies or the impact of convergence.
We have just launched the second phase of our UK film skills strategy, A Bigger Future 2. Please visit our funding section to see what training we are currently looking to support:
