How employers will benefit
There is a strong business case for employer involvement in work related learning and the Diploma in Creative and Media.
If you as an employer decide to get involved in the delivery of the Diploma, you will be influencing tomorrow's employees and practitioners, helping to ensure that they have the right technical and functional skills for the future.
You will also be contributing directly to the creation of talent in the sector. This will have a positive impact on the sector's economy as that talent grows and becomes productive.
Your involvement will provide students with an understanding of the vibrancy and variety of the creative industries, as well as:
- different models of employment;
- different job roles;
- the structure of the industries;
- the industries' economic and cultural importance;
- and the industries' role in society.
New employees with Diplomas will 'hit the ground running' with enhanced practical and transferable skills, industry knowledge and business awareness. They will have less need for basic training, allowing you to focus on specialist training suited to your business.
Partnership working is a recognised route to creating an outcome bigger than the sum of its parts. Working together with schools and colleges, you will be seen to be leading the way and will build a reputation as a progressive employer of choice.
