Take part in Creative Employers Skills Survey

Creative businesses are being asked to take part in the Creative Employer Skills Survey of businesses across the creative industries in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

The exercise provides an opportunity to have an industry-wide conversation on current skills challenges and the talent and skills needed for the future success of the creative industries.

It forms part of a wider skills audit process being led by the Creative PEC and Work Advance, which will provide much-needed evidence to inform the Creative Industries Sector Plan and subsequent skills provision for the sector. It is co-funded by Department of Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) and the Creative Industries Council (CIC) and benefits from a Steering Group including Skills England, devolved government and trade bodies from each creative sub-sector.

Creative businesses with two or more employees are invited to take part in an interview with researchers, to gather data on skills shortages and gaps, training provision and future skills needs.
