Presenters training gaps analysis – final report Training offerings Respondent professional development Presenters were asked to reflect on the types of training they had taken since becoming a presenter. Workshops, conferences, and Contact events are the most common form of professional development, although most presenters still emphasize that much of their ongoing training takes place on-the-job. Some presenters have taken formal training at a university or college since becoming a presenter, although not in presenter programs per se, but rather in arts management or business administration. Skills acquired The skills obtained from workshops varied, depending on the number of years an individual had been a presenter, the workshops attended, and an individual’s educational background. The skills acquired by presenters through both formal and informal training events are listed below. Skills are organized by categories: artistic, management, technical, and general (following the Essential skills section above). Skills and sub-skills are listed. Artistic skills • Discipline appreciation • viewing performances with discussion and review with peers and colleagues – very common at Contact events • introduction to other genres • learning to appreciate other art forms • artistic dance appreciation • round table discussion regarding the future of classical music and the challenges of selling classical music • presenting chamber music • Programming • Developing programs for your audience – understanding the curatorial role • Understanding the needs of an artist – the difference between inexperienced and experienced artists • New ways to present artists June, 2007 07chrc02 Page 21
