Creative Careers Programme 22/23-24/25 Competition
This page provides supporting documentation for applications to the Creative Careers Programme 22/23-24/25 Competition.
Overview
The Department of Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) is inviting charitable, philanthropic or benevolent institutions to bid for up to £947,000 to deliver the next phase of the Creative Careers Programme (CCP) Financial Year 22/23-24/25.
The CCP pilot, 2018-2020, was designed to address skills shortages and information failures in creative industries (CIs) by providing young people across England with specialist information, advice and guidance (IAG) about creative careers. This next phase of the CCP will continue to provide specialist IAG, with a specific focus on engaging young people from low socioeconomic backgrounds, and securing the long-term future of the programme.
