SACCORD combines SKILLS and ACCORDANCE by collecting skills intelligence and data to support the European Skills Agenda and facilitates collaboration and joining up of partners at European and regional level who have not previously worked together in supporting the Creative Pact for Skills.
Powered by SACCORD in association with CYANOTYPES, Creative Skills Week 2025 aims to serve as a central hub for the Cultural and Creative Sector and Industries (CCSI), offering a dedicated platform for sharing knowledge and promoting new approaches to re-skilling and up-skilling.
Be part of Creative Skills Week’s common goal to collectively build a robust European Creative Skills Ecosystem. Meet with members of the Creative Pact for Skills, local ecosystem partnerships and the sector’s Blueprint Project, CYANOTYPES.

Creative Skills Week 2025: Call for Contributions
We invite visionary projects, bold experiments, and fresh contributions to shape this year’s Creative Skills Week 2025.
In an ever-evolving world we must embrace new approaches, rethinking how we teach, learn, and apply skills. Now is the time: Create. Transform. Regenerate. How can we collectively refine our processes and build a future-proof workforce?
We welcome proposals for project presentation (in-person and online), online events to be part of CSW2025' programme on 22 or 26 September 2025, and topic-specific proposals.
