This was&nbsp;also the basis for the curriculum development in&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/pagines.uab.cat\/act\/content\/io3-learning-curriculum-proposal-university-level\">IO3<\/a>. Two different but complementary profiles were&nbsp;developed in this project, namely:<br \/>\n1) Accessibility Coordinator, and<br \/>\n2) Accessibly Manager.<br \/>\nDuring this intelectual output, all partners worked together and designed two skills cards defining the two job roles respectively. The skills cards&nbsp;for an Accessibility Coordinator can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/act\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2017\/03\/io2-skill-cards_1_accessibility-coordinator-venue-based-_final-1.pdf\">here<\/a>&nbsp;and the skills cards for an Accessibility Manager <a href=\"https:\/\/webs.uab.cat\/act\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/126\/2017\/03\/io2-skill-cards_2_accessibility-manager_final.pdf\">here<\/a>.<br \/>\nAccessibility Coordinators are those who work at a venue and take care of all accessibility needs for successful integration of all people to access culture. Meanwhile, Accessibility Managers are those who are in charge of cultural event management with a focus on accessibility. However, they are not based in any venues, such as a theatre. An accessibility manager may be in charge of coordinating accessibility at various venues within his or her local district. This work will involve collaborating with accessibility coordinators at individual venues where such a role exists. If there is no accessibility coordinator for any given individual venues (such as in smaller venues), the accessibility manager will oversee accessibility across these venues. They shall have basic knowledge on accessibility and are able to decide accessibility policies or adequacy when choosing venues or productions.<br \/>\nThe two job roles share a lot of similarities in the basic skills. IO2 identified the major skills required in the perspectives of understanding accessibility, venue accessibility, accessibility services, accessibility management for live events, and promoting accessibility. The main distinction between the two functions resides in the context within which the two specialists operate. The accessibility manager must, in fact, have an additional skill: be flexible and be able to transfer his knowledge and competences to different environments. This applies to his\/her material skills (i.e. related to the venue) and to his\/her interpersonal skills. This explains the rather limited number of differences between the two skill cards.<br \/>\nThe skills cards were created by all partners over a period of 6 months. Each partners contributed to the final outcome based on their specialities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The final outcome was developed after 6 rounds of feedback from all partners, the timeline of which can be seen as below:<br \/>\n\u2022 30 June 2016: the 1st draft was composed by University of Vienna, the IO leader and sent off to all partners for feedback.<br \/>\n\u2022 22 August 2016: the 2nd draft was circulated by University of Vienna to all partners for further considerations.<br \/>\n\u2022 23 September 2016: the 3rd draft was sent off by University of Vienna to all partners for suggestions.<br \/>\n\u2022 17 October 2016: the 3rd draft was discussed by all partner at the project meeting in Vienna<br \/>\n\u2022 11 November 2016: the 4th draft was circulated by University of Vienna to all partners for suggestions<br \/>\n\u2022 07 December 2016: the 5th draft was circulated by University of Vienna to all partners for considerations<br \/>\n\u2022 14 December 2016: the 6th and final draft was circulated by University of Vienna to all partners to validate<br \/>\n\u2022 20 December 2016: the final draft was validated by all partners<\/p>\n<p>The 3rd version of the skills cards was presented by University of Vienna on 4 November 2016 at Languages &amp; Media, the 11th International Conference on Language Transfer in Audiovisual Media in Berlin, the PPTs and information can be found&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/pagines.uab.cat\/act\/content\/act-berlin-conference-languages-and-media-2016\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A key aspect of the project was&nbsp;to define skills and competences of the manager profile, beginning by its denomination.
