OMC - Fostering cooperation in the European Union on skills, training and knowledge transfer in cultural heritage professions

The European Cultural Agenda promotes collaboration and diversity in culture and heritage without binding legislation. A common working method is the Open Method of Coordination (OMC), in which the Member States of the Union cooperate with important tasks. In 2017, a working group of representatives from 23 EU member states was started to analyze current and future needs for education, training and knowledge transfer in traditional and emerging professions in cultural heritage. The working group's mandate was to identify needs, follow up goals and make recommendations, and to promote the exchange of experiences and good practices.
