X-ray of the audiovisual sector in the Valencian Community

The AIDO Innovation Center, in collaboration with the Empreses Audiovisuals Valencianes Federades (EAVF) has presented the study “Prospection and analysis of training in the audiovisual sector of the Valencian Community” both at the AIDO headquarters (Valencia) and in the City of Light (Alicante).

The AIDO Innovation Center, in collaboration with the Empreses Audiovisuals Valencianes Federades (EAVF) has presented the study “Prospection and analysis of training in the audiovisual sector of the Valencian Community” both at the AIDO headquarters (Valencia) and in the City of Light (Alicante).

The objective of the study has been to reflect and analyze the professional and employment skills of the audiovisual sector of the Valencian Community so that actions can be carried out aimed at guidance, advice and support for workers both in said industry and in those other sectors close to the audiovisual sector.

Among the main conclusions, three factors stand out that characterize the sector in terms of its human capital, providing it with a marked learning capacity: an average age of 36 years, which makes up a young human team but with sufficient experience; a majority of university degrees, whether diplomas or graduates; and a work experience in the sector close to 10 years.

Another relevant piece of information from the study refers to the complete university training of professionals in the audiovisual sector, since in the Valencian Community there is a more than sufficient offer of degrees and places.

On the other hand, the activity generated by television productions is configured as the field that welcomes the greatest number of audiovisual professionals, with this percentage representation gradually increasing over time from 34.8% to the current 41.7%.

Además, la información recopilada muestra que los puestos técnicos y los creativos son los que más están aumentando su demanda. Según los empresarios del sector encuestados para el estudio, estos perfiles son los más necesarios y paradójicamente, los que más difícilmente se encuentran en el mercado de trabajo.

City of Light

El estudio hace referencia a que La Ciudad de la Luz se configura como un entorno generador de empleo, con gran posibilidad de crecimiento futuro, y con un Centro de Formación que, en este momento, se trataría su infraestructura ofrecería una gran potencialidad.

It should be noted that throughout the investigation, audiovisual industry professionals agree in recognizing AIDO as the private non-regulated training center of reference for the sector.

This study has had the support of the Servici Valencià d’Ocupació i Formació (SERVEF) and the European Social Fund (ESF), as well as the collaboration of Ciudad de la Luz.
