The Universitat de València, through the Office of the Vice-Principal for Culture and Society with the support of the Government of the Valencian Community, has launched the new Continuous Training Plan in Cinema and Audiovisual (PECA) for 2025, composed by two itineraries of specialisation, with micro-credential university certification, in production and cinematographic direction. Along with those itineraries, it will be taught, between the months of June and July, a training directed specifically to accessibility in the cultural sector.

In this last line, which will have a certification from the Office of the Vice-Principal for Culture and Society from the UV, there will be three courses organised, according to Cinema Club UV, agent of the training, “for the relevance and priority of the training of professors from the cultural sector in matters of accessibility and inclusion”. The goal of this first part s “the upgrade of competences from active professors, as well as the training of new talents, contributing to the audiovisual development and sustainability from the Valencian Community”.

The first course, from 11 to the 20 June, it will be titled ‘Audio-description in art’ and the aim is the training of digital competences (methodologies, technologies and regulations) for a universal access of people with visual disabilities in the artistic and cultural level. When the course ends, students must have developed competences, like the creation of effective audio-descricptions, the use of accessible technologic, cultural sensitivity, regulations application and an adequate treatment of people with visual disabilities.

From 25 June to 4 July, the course ‘Audiodescripción y subtitulado accesible’ about digital and sustainability in the creation of content competences will be offered. Among the discussed topics, stand out the creation of subtitles and accessible audio-descriptions, the management of specialised *software,* the application of the regulations, and the evaluation and adaptation of audiovisual content.

This first part of PECA about accessibility will close with a course about ‘Inclusion in audiovisual media’, from 7 to 18 July, where tools and knowledge will be worked on to promote the access and equality on cinema, televison and *streaming* platforms. The analysis and evaluation capacity will be addressed, the management of digital tools to guarantee accessibility, and the adaptation and creation of inclusive content.

The integrated courses on the line of accessibility in the cultural sector will be taught by the expert in inclusive cinema Miguel Ángel Font, trainer on accessibility and cultural inclusion of audiovisual media and assessor of associations and public and private entities of national and international entities.

He has written and directed more than 200 productions, mostly fiction and fantasy formats, with “impossible” styling, special effects and an important digital postproduction. He collaborated in the redaction of the Libro Blanco de Públicos de la Cultura 2020 and, as he himself says, his “challenge” is “creating audiovisual formats designed for everyone”.

**University micro-credentials in production and direction**  
The specialisation in cinematographic production for the 2025 year counts with the courses ‘El papel del productor cinematográfico: de la idea al *pitching*’ (from 8 to 19 September), which will get into the key roll of the producer and the executive producer from phase zero of detection of ideas towards the search of creative talent and funding; and ‘De la dirección de producción al rodaje’ (from 6 to 17 October) about funding and organisation in cinema.

As for the itinerary of specialisation in cinematographic direction, this will start with the course ‘Guion cinematográfico de proyectos de ficción’ (from 22 September to 3 October) that will go deeper into advanced techniques for the elaboration of scripts; and will continue with the training in ‘Narrativas documentales y técnicas de investigación cinematográficas’ (from 20 to 31 October) for the development and realisation of documentary projects that require a previous research work.

With the goal of favouring direct interaction between students and teaching staff, as well as making practical learning easier through workshops and specialised laboratories, trainings will be of eminently on-site character in the La Nau Cultural Centre from the Universitat de València.

Access to all courses is of reduced enrolment (30 € per course) and without any requirements of entry with the goal of promoting inclusion and participation of multidisciplinary professional profiles.

Registration to specialised itineraries will open next month of July.
