Scope

New call invites education providers and media organisations to develop practical courses in AI, intellectual property and digital storytelling.

Europe’s audiovisual media sector is evolving faster than traditional training can follow. This call funds a different approach: short, targeted courses that can be designed and deployed quickly, reaching working professionals where the skills gap is most acute.

The call supports the design and delivery of short, practical CPD courses across three areas where the need is most acute:

Intellectual Property, Rights & Content Exploitation: Advanced rights management, licensing and value creation in platform-driven and AI-mediated environments

Artificial Intelligence in Audiovisual Production & Workflows: Applied skills for integrating AI into content development, production, post-production and distribution in responsible and competitive ways

Storytelling for Digital, Interactive and Cross-Media Environments: Advanced narrative approaches for immersive, interactive and platform-based formats

The call is open to education providers, industry bodies, research institutions and media organisations with strong sector roots and the capacity to design and deploy high-quality training quickly, whether applying independently or as part of a small consortium. Up to eight projects will be funded.

Remarks

This call is open to legal entities established in EU Member States and Horizon Europe Associated Countries. Proposals may be submitted by both single applicants and consortia, as follows:

– Mono-beneficiary option: Open only to HEIs, VET institutions, or accredited professional training providers.
– Multi-beneficiaries (consortium) option: Up to three participants from at least two eligible countries.
