Skills Partnership Launch at Pinewood - 8 December 2008
Skillset, Pinewood and the Skillset Screen Academy at the London College of Communication (LCC) and the Ealing Institute of Media (EIM) announced the launch of a joint initiative to tackle skills gaps in UK film making on 8 December 2008.
The Skills Partnership was launched by Barbara Follet MP, the Minister for Culture, Creative Industries and Tourism, at a ceremony held at Pinewood Studios. The partnership will bring together under one roof the business acumen and scale of operation of Pinewood with the advanced teaching in craft and technical skills at the Skillset Screen Academy at LCC and EIM.
The first office of the Skillset Screen Academy is now open on site at Pinewood and will act as a base for the delivery of advanced training schemes such as Set Crafts Apprenticeships and the 35mm project - a joint industry/education training initiative.
