TRAIN DIGITAL: Screen Sector
Main contract details
The UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) is a central pillar of the UK Government’s Levelling Up agenda and provides £2.6 billion of funding for local investment by March 2025.
UKSPF supports the UK government’s wider commitment to level up all parts of the UK by delivering on each of the levelling up objectives:
• Boost productivity, pay, jobs and living standards by growing the private sector, especially in those places where they are lagging
• Spread opportunities and improve public services, especially in those places where they are weakest
• Restore a sense of community, local pride and belonging, especially in those places where they have been lost
• Empower local leaders and communities, especially in those places lacking local agency
Funding is tackling the challenges set out in our Investment Plan and provides an opportunity to pursue local opportunities to help Gateshead become a place where everyone thrives.
Gateshead Council is seeking to invite applications to deliver a project against the following People and Skills intervention:
• E41: Funding to Support Local Digital Skills
Bids are invited for a project of up to £24,999, to pilot activity focussing on the development and provision of work or industry experience for young people who would not otherwise get the opportunity to do so.
Digital careers within the screen sector rely on a skilled workforce, both qualified and with experience in this fast-paced industry and whilst qualifications are required, hands on experience within the sector is invaluable and often difficult to obtain. We therefore welcome applications which demonstrate innovative options for work experience and/or industry exposure.
