The Creative Skillset Employment Census, which was last completed in 2009 is the most comprehensive survey of creative media employers, providing estimates of the workforce size and shape including a breakdown by occupation, gender, ethnicity, disability and geographical location.
The information is vital in allowing the industry to identify changes in the workforce, monitor representation of diverse groups and target investment in skills development to ensure industry needs are met.
In order to get as accurate a picture of employment in Scotland as possible, could I ask all employers to complete a form for all employees/freelancers as at Wednesday 4 July 2012 but returns are open until the end of the month.
Thank you in advance and if you have any concerns or queries please feel free to contact me or my research colleague Anna Chourdaki at annac@creativeskillset.org or on 020 7713 9820.
Best Wishes
Alasdair
Sctland Director, Creative Skillset

To the ‘no longer with us category’ you could add TuDocs from Ayrshire. We worked on interactive media narrative and did some games (mainly through the BitShift studio we took over). Folded this year when HSBC pulled our funding.
