Cannes Lions set to launch training courses for young professionals taking place during festival
Cannes Lions’ programme of academies offers the opportunity for young professionals across every communications discipline to hone their craft in a unique environment. Taking place during the Festival, each course is curated and led by an expert in their field and features a handpicked speaker line-up drawn from the industry’s highest ranks.
Cannes Lions is dedicated to nurturing the young talent of this industry: the students, young creatives, up-and-coming marketing talent, agency executives and young directors. Through its Young Lions competitions and tailored academies, Cannes Lions aims to inspire, educate and grow the fresh blood that this industry is built on.
At the same time, the Festival recognises that creative growth is a process that never stops. That’s why there is diverse learning on offer to suit every career stage. As well as the huge range of seminars and workshops open to delegates, the Cannes Creative Leaders Programme provides intensive training for those seeking an even more professionally rewarding Cannes Lions experience. The goal is for every delegate to leave Cannes more inspired, more aware and more prepared for new professional challenges.
The first academy launched at Cannes Lions in 2003, aimed at helping students already studying advertising, marketing, communications and design better understand the industry.
Over the ten years that have followed, the number of Academies at Cannes Lions has grown, as the Festival continues to provide platforms for the next generation of industry talent to grow and learn the skills they need to thrive.
Now, the Festival offers a total of six different academy courses, offering training for everyone from students and young creative, to brand marketers, media professionals and account managers. Each bespoke course runs during the Festival week, under the guidance of an experienced tutor. Participants are guided to experience the best and most relevant parts of the learning programme, while also enjoying specialist sessions from industry leaders alongside tailored training and group discussions.
