Distribution<br />

Skillset’s Employment Census is the key vehicle for collecting data about the<br />

distribution sector in the UK. The research will be deepened in future by<br />

engaging with the <strong>Film</strong> Distributors Association (FDA) membership and with<br />

other theatrical and video distributors as part of the biennial Workforce Survey<br />

from 2005 onwards.<br />

Exhibition<br />

The Employment Census achieves a near 100% response from the cinema<br />

exhibition sector which provides reliable employment estimates broken down<br />

by occupation. It is also recommended that this sector works hard to<br />

encourage employees to take part in the Workforce Survey from 2005.<br />

TRAINING, EDUCATION AND CAREER PROGRESSION<br />

Systems to monitor and track individuals who have taken up approved and<br />

supported courses will be established so that the effectiveness and value for<br />

money of provision is evaluated regularly. This process will include tracking<br />

individuals’ destinations on leaving the courses and the data will enable the<br />

industry to monitor and assist the removal of any obstacles to career<br />

progression for individuals of ability. As part of this exercise a more in-depth<br />

study will follow a smaller group of individuals to properly understand their<br />

experiences and barriers faced when working in the film industry.<br />
