COMPASS is Craft Scotland’s learning and development programme created specifically for makers. COMPASS focuses on developing craft talent and equipping individuals with the necessary skills to create a sustainable craft practice.
COMPASS offers a unique mix of active learning, mentoring and specialist advice, and has been developed together with Elaine Furnivall, a Chartered Occupational Psychologist who specialises in personal and organisational development.
Craft Scotland have created three programmes to provide support for a wide range of craft careers: Next Generation, Emerging Maker and Established Maker. Participants can cultivate networks and develop their knowledge about selling effectively, marketing, entrepreneurship and more.
