BRADFORD, U.K. - TelAve -- The partnership will create industry-leading training and employment pathways into the UK's fast-growing creative and live events sectors.

The three organisations signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to deliver a collaborative programme of skills, training and progression opportunities, with a strong focus on supporting young people aged 16 - 24.

At the heart of the partnership is The Producing Academy at Bradford College — a specialist Level 3 programme designed to prepare students for careers in creative production, live events and digital industries.

Through the partnership, Producing Academy learners will gain direct access to industry environments, employer-led experiences and clear progression routes into higher education and employment.

The collaboration brings together Bradford College's strength in further education, Production Park's world-class live events campus and global industry network, and ALT's specialist higher education provision to create a seamless pipeline from education into industry.
