They focus on the concept of cultural management and the profession of cultural manager in the public, private and voluntary

sectors. The courses cover in depth the field of cultural management, which includes management strategies in organisations, funding and evaluation. Cultural managers implement, in collaboration with other professionals, a potential project within the expected timeframe, an activity that requires creative and organisational skills.
