 A guide created by a collective
of leading arts organisations to
help you develop a career in the
arts if you are not a performer
“The best bit is that |

There is no set way to enter into a career in the arts. People get their feet on the first rung of the ladder in a variety of ways. Some come with formal training, some with transferable work skills, and others with qualifications. What unites them is a great enthusiasm for the arts. Creative & Cultural Skills provides information on training and career pathways in all sectors of the arts. www.ccskills.org.uk The Independent Theatre Council runs a year-round programme of short courses, seminars and professional career development. The ITC can also advise on specialist schemes and initiatives, such as Fast Track (for aspiring Black and Minority Ethnic arts managers), secondments, mentoring, work placements, shadowing and action learning sets. The Theatrical Management Association is another management body which holds courses and seminars throughout the year. www.tmauk.org There are myriad types of training on offer. To help you narrow your choice, see the range of jobs that you might expect to find in larger arts organisations across the UK. |
