Strategic skills for creative futures
We are all works in progress, blueprints that are continuously being revised and updated.
CYANOTYPES is a community of change, a pan-European

About CYANOTYPES
CYANOTYPES is developing its dynamic skills framework that equips creatives, businesses, educators, and policymakers with the competences needed to navigate the digital, green, and societal transitions. By using a co-creative, Train-the-Trainer approach and fostering local skills ecosystems, it enables upskilling, reskilling, and future-readiness across the cultural and creative industries
Creative work is changing rapidly. The learning system must change with it.
CYANOTYPES brings together education providers, industry organisations, creative networks, and policymakers to rethink how creative skills are defined and developed.
