Screen Australia has announced the latest recipients for the Skills Development Fund and BTL: Next Step initiative, who will share in over $560,000 of Industry Development funding.
Since launching in April 2023, Screen Australia’s Industry Development initiatives have provided over $3.4 million specifically for training and skills development for more than 430 people.
These initiatives were introduced to help address the skills shortages for below-the-line roles and grow the capacity of the Australian screen workforce. The Skills Development Fund is designed to support screen businesses and games development studios to provide work-based learning, while BTL: Next Step supports mid-career practitioners to upskill from their current area of expertise.
