So that\u2019s why we\u2019ve put so much into this training academy so that in itself, it will be a fantastic experience for those people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The programme aims to&nbsp;diversify the workforce in the arts, which is worth more than \u00a3100bn&nbsp;annually to the economy.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/mif.co.uk\/traineeships\/\">Factory <\/a>encourages people from all backgrounds to get involved and develop transferable skills that can prepare them in the workplace.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We aim to diversify the creative industry workforce. It\u2019s not about creating churn. It\u2019s about linking in with as many employers as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Students take part in a 12-day training program and learn about different areas of the industry, including press, finance, marketing, production and producing.<\/p>\n<p>Over the next five years, the academy will see 1,400 young people take part in a range of pre-employment training programmes including training academies, work experience programmes, traineeships and paid internships.<\/p>\n<p>However, this year looks a little different, with all students learning online.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They\u2019re all on Microsoft Teams, they are communicating via chat. We\u2019ve got masterclasses and teaching going on in virtual classrooms,&#8221; said&nbsp;Jocelyne.<\/p>\n<p>Aimed at young adults without a degree and currently unemployed, the academy aims to be as accessible as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Jocelyne said: &#8220;In lots of ways, it makes it more accessible because we don\u2019t have to worry about getting people from A to B. There\u2019s a whole host of opportunities we can explore around virtual learning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Previous students have gone onto to complete work placements at The Lowry Theatre, HOME and the Royal Exchange.<\/p>\n<p>Ch\u00e9rie Bosama, a graduate&nbsp;development trainee at Factory Acamedy, said: &#8220;It\u2019s actually been life-changing. I just wanted something different and wanted to challenge myself.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I felt that this was a perfect time for me to challenge myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The arts have really struggled through the pandemic, with many creatives having to leave the industry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What we really need to do is ensure that we\u2019ve got people that stick within the sector and get into leadership positions,&#8221; explained&nbsp;Jocelyne.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And that\u2019s where we really need to be driving the work that we do.<\/p>\n<p>So the vision for the factory is not just about entry-level. It\u2019s getting people to stick, and that\u2019s where we will start to achieve that outcome of diversifying the workplace.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2018&nbsp;the Manchester International Festival (MIF) launched the Factory Academy for unemployed adults aged 19-24 to&nbsp;train to work in the creative industry.
