FRAMEWORK

Developing regenerative learning systems for creative futures

The CYANOTYPES project is developing a Train-the-Trainer Framework tailored for creative businesses, trainers, educators, networks, and sectors to assess their skills readiness, supporting existing and future education programmes.

It aims to help learners develop knowledge, skills, responsibilities, and attitudes that promote transversal thinking, planning, and action with empathy, responsibility, and care for our planet and public health.

The Creative Agency Circle at the heart of the Framework is intended to help individuals and organisations to identify and imagine your level of skills-readiness. This outlines 5 competency clusters, focusing on specific aspects of creative agency:

  • The Collective cluster explores new forms of cooperation beyond existing organisational boundaries. 
  • The Public cluster aims to inspire public sector innovation enhancing understanding of the role of public actors and processes. 
  • The Data-driven cluster explores new contexts utilising data to facilitate socio-technological systems design.  
  • The Value-creating cluster reframes the intersection between entrepreneurship and aesthetic practice.  
  • The Regenerative cluster redefines sustainability, facilitating curative action and regenerative agency.

Upskilling and reskilling are becoming strategic imperatives for many businesses and identifying key skills for the future can help companies and organisations to identify new opportunities and new paths to growth. The CYANOTYPES Train-the-Trainer Framework is intended to help organisations and individuals to develop key skills for future creatives.

And this can be done by working not only within organisational boundaries but within ecosystems alongside educational providers in vocational training and higher education and by taking advantage of reskilling incentives that are becoming increasingly available as the urgency of bringing actors together in local learning ecosystems becomes better understood.

The goal is to provide input for existing and future education programmes, helping learners develop knowledge, skills, responsibilities and attitudes that promote transversal thinking, planning, and action with empathy, responsibility, and care for our planet and public health. According to the OECD, UNESCO, and the EU, future skill sets for upcoming challenges, crises, or lifelong learning need to be transversal. Transformative and transversal skills are those that can cut across different tasks and job roles, enabling students, employees, and citizens to adapt to changes in their careers and in times of crisis.
