Arts sector jobs 'going unclaimed'
Cultural and creative employers are finding it hard to recruit the employees they need - despite more than one million young people in the UK being currently unemployed.
According to Arts Council England, the worrying trend means that the sector is at risk of losing a generation of talent.
To tackle the issue ACE has launched its Creative Employment Programme, designed to support up to 6,500 new apprenticeships, pre-apprenticeships and paid internships across the sector.
The scheme aims to provide young unemployed people (aged 16-24) with paid opportunities to gain access to on the job training, skills and experience, linking to one of the Arts Council goals of creating fairer entry routes into the arts and cultural sector and increasing workforce diversity.
The National Skills Academy, the delivery arm of Creative & Cultural Skills, has been appointed as the national provider for the programme.
