On 15 December, the seminar Creative Industries Capacity Building Program, in the framework of the Erasmus+ funded CCIPRO project was held at the Department of Cultural Studies of Sofia University.
CCIPRO project was presented as an example of capacity building to improve the technical expertise of youth and professionals in culture and creative industries. The project objectives were found essential for the development of young people that look forward to their future professional development in the sector.
Students learned about the opportunities offered by European Union programmes such as Creative Europe and Erasmus+ to support their career orientation. In the second part of the seminar, the trainers presented time management tools as part of the practical assignment, where participants worked in groups and structured their projects.
CCIPRO project objectives are to:
– To guarantee youth workers’ career growth in entrepreneurship, enterprise advancement, team cohesion and management, globalization, access to opportunities, time management, and guidance to address the demands of young people in creative industries.
– To ensure that young people in the cultural and artistic sectors build the necessary qualifications through the involvement of youth workers and professionals in the organizations in which young people participate.
