Animation is one the fastest growing sectors in Europe with ever growing needs in new skills. the following should help to keep up with the demand. 

Cartoon, one of the pillar organisations in the animation industry, offers three different 2.5 day events open to animation professionals: 

• Cartoon Digital is dedicated to new technologies; 
• Cartoon Finance to public and private funding in europe for animation and the management and exploitation of rights; 
• Cartoon Feature to the marketing and financing of animation films and stereoscopic 3D production. 

EAMprofessional aims to bridge the gap to animation and will train professionals (not necessarily from an animation background) in the specificities of animation film production (script, financing, production, distribution). La Poudrière offers an 11-week training course for professionals wishing to adapt a book into an animation film or series. Animators wishing to expand their skills in 3D animation can choose between courses offered by The Animation Workshop and Anomalia.
