The creative industries have been experiencing skills gaps for some time. At a macro level, the prevalence of skills shortage vacancies is broadly in line with the trend across the wider economy, with around 6% of employers now reporting difficulty in finding the skills, qualifications or experience they need when trying to fill vacancies.

With our granular skills data, we're helping education providers to explore the most pressing employment and skills requirements in the Creative Industries and the composition and diversity of the workforce, as well as whether skills priorities in the labour market within the Creative Industries are sufficiently being met, and hence, the nature and severity of any skills mismatches when they are not.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a well-known motivation theory that is widely referred to in education circles. We think it can also provide a model for how students are motivated to learn. 

❗The hierarchy is particularly relevant when designing INCLUSIVE learning environments.❗

All students require a sense of belonging to remain motivated, but this can be more challenging for those with learning or physical disabilities to obtain if the design of your programme makes them feel set apart from their peers.
