Production and project competence is another one of Humak’s cultural management key competence areas. The key competence development priorities in the near future are \u201cculturally, socially and ecologically sustainable cultural management\u201d and \u201cnew technologies and digital production environments\u201d. The pandemic has forced societies and citizens to consider new ways of doing things. From the perspective of Humak’s cultural management, there is an increasing need for participatory, sustainable and developing producer competence in the context of rapidly changing operating environments.<\/p>\n
The strategic goal of the cultural management key competence is to strengthen the production and project expertise of the cultural sector based on the development of diverse environments for cultural and artistic productions and services. In addition, we want to promote the possibility for different industries to utilize professional producer know-how. Increasing social inclusion and utilizing national and international networks are also key objectives.<\/p>\n
The two development priorities<\/strong> guiding research, development and innovation in particular in the coming years, are:<\/p>\n The first of the priorities, sustainable cultural management, covers aspects related to inclusion and cultural rights, as well as development work related to the preservation of cultural heritage, cultural tourism and event production, as well as the environmental friendliness of creative economy products.<\/p>\n New technologies are changing the field of culture and the arts at an accelerating pace. The second priority the key competence development area are contents of artistic and cultural experiences, ways of producing content as well as ways of productization, financing, distribution and regulation of activities. Managing this change requires not only new innovations in cultural production, but also the critical evaluation and research development of new solutions and operating models, both nationally and internationally.<\/p>\n There is a growing need in society to increase cultural management competence. Superficial teaching of these skills, for example within art education degrees, does not solve the problem of competence shortage. In a multidisciplinary operating environment, cultural management experts and professionals capable of design, production, marketing and management tasks are needed.<\/p>\n Humak’s cultural manager training and related development activities are already able to respond extensively to these needs, and it is foreseeable that the demand for the expertise offered by Humak will continue to grow in the future. Continuous learning products and services are also being developed in an innovative way and by actively utilizing new communication and training technologies.<\/p>\n Cultural managers who graduated in 2013-2018 (74% graduated in 2016 or earlier), 84% have been employed within six months and a total of 87% a year after graduation. 58% of cultural managers were employed during their studies.<\/p>\n\n
