SACCORD Local Ecosystem Partnership - We want to hear from you!

Skills are fundamental in preparing individuals for the evolving dynamics of the labour market and fostering economic resilience amidst demographic shifts and accelerating transitions.

Lifelong learning must be accessible to everyone. This accessibility is especially crucial for the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) ecosystem, which is characterised by its diversity, breadth, and a high number of micro-organisations and self-employed individuals. These factors often lead to temporary contracts and relatively low incomes compared to other sectors. The SACCORD project is exploring how micro-credentials can address these challenges and support lifelong learning within our sector.

We invite you to participate in this brief 60-second questionnaire to share your insights!

Thank you for your contribution!

3. Social Partners: Organizations representing the interests of workers, including trade unions, employee associations, and other labor-related entities involved in negotiating and advocating for improved working conditions, including training and skills development.

4. Educational Institutions: Schools, universities, vocational training centers, and other educational establishments responsible for providing formal and informal learning opportunities, as well as developing curricula aligned with the needs of the labor market. Especially the Lifelong Learning like VET organisations are of prior interest.

5. Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) Workforce: This includes individuals and creatives who represent the interest of SMEs in various roles within the CCIs.

For your further understanding, you can check the definition of micro-credential introduced by European Commission as below...
A micro-credential “is the record of the learning outcomes that a learner has acquired following a small volume of learning. These learning outcomes have been assessed against transparent and clearly defined standards. Courses leading to micro-credentials are designed to provide the learner with specific knowledge, skills and competences that respond to societal, personal, cultural or labour market needs. Micro-credentials are owned by the learner, can be shared and are portable. They may be standalone or combined into larger credentials. They are underpinned by quality assurance following agreed standards in the relevant sector or area of activity".
