Skills Discovery Workshop (Sun PM)

EXPLORE AND ELEVATE YOUR DIVERSE SKILLS
The Skills Discovery Workshop is a collaboration between Auckland City of Music, UK training provider CLOCK, and Auckland education provider SAE Creative Media Institute. The workshops have been run in Melbourne by the Victorian Music Development Office for the last 2 years, and it now comes to Auckland for the very first time.

As creatives we can take for granted or miss the value in the many integrated and transferable skills we acquire throughout a career. The 3-hour CLOCK Skills Discovery Workshop is a space where our team of CLOCK mentors help you:

• Uncover your sector-specific and transferable skills.
• Recognise, appreciate, and value all the skills you have learned and developed in any
  context.
• Gain a deeper understanding of your strengths and use that insight to move forward with your creative projects and ideas with renewed confidence and belief.

The CLOCK Skills Discovery
Workshop is suitable for anyone at any stage of their career. Whether you work
in the Auckland music community as an employee, freelancer, volunteer, trainee,
intern, senior manager, or entrepreneur, come join us!

FACILITATORS
Denise Stanley - CLOCK Founder
“I am passionate about practical learning and the EU directive of 2012 that states: ‘Every citizen has the right to have their learning recognised and validated irrespective of the context in which it occurred.’
My current role is developing strategic Peer-to-Peer Learning Programmes and engineering positive cultural changes and inclusion for industry, charities and education contexts.
The groundbreaking CLOCK Programme is an example of this. CLOCK is based on 13 years of field research with employers and practitioners in the creative and cultural industries across 15 countries. CLOCK creates a level playing field for skilled creatives and entrepreneurs irrespective of where or how they learned their skills, and creates a pathway for non-formal and creative learners to access Higher Level learning and qualifications. CLOCK makes invisible skills visible and valued.”
