N 24 35 Data and market intelligence to provide focused training and education for those areas where there is a skills shortage or gap THE PROBLEM Large parts of the film industry employ a highly casualised and largely freelance workforce. This is particularly true in the production sector. This in turn makes identifying the size, composition and training needs of the industry particularly challenging. A real understanding of the workforce in the UK is needed so that skills, talent and company development funding and delivery can be properly targeted. Comprehensive qualitative and quantitative research that measures the size and skills needs of the workforce in all sectors of the film industry is essential. In particular: • Up to date and accurate research that will help Government and public funding agencies plan strong and useful partnerships and support for the film industry; • Reliable collection of statistics that allows the industry to understand how many people are entering or leaving the workforce and in which grades, so that potential shortages can be anticipated and planned for. Comprehensive workforce data will encourage the industry to identify and measure its progress in achieving a diverse workforce. Thorough tracking of individuals taking up training and education that is supported by the <strong>Film</strong> Skills Fund will also be required, in order to maintain the effectiveness and value of this investment.
