Training for youth and cultural professionals

The Secretary of Culture, Economy, and Creative Industries of the State of São Paulo, Marília Marton, stated that the project aims to invest in technical training. The goal is to enable youth and cultural professionals to occupy qualified job positions.

According to the initiative, the offering of free courses in São Paulo also aims to promote the growth of the cultural sector. Professional training is presented as one of the paths to strengthen this production chain.

How the CULTSP PRO program works

CULTSP PRO is a professional qualification program from the Secretary of Culture, Economy, and Creative Industries, managed by the Institute of Development and Management (IDG). In addition to the courses, the program offers complementary actions such as lectures, masterclasses, and seminars.

The training covers areas such as performing arts, music production, scenography, curation, museum management, audiovisual, games, graphic design, photography, gastronomy, sustainable fashion, and cultural entrepreneurship. With this structure, the free courses in São Paulo become part of a broader action for qualification in culture and the creative economy.
