In Romania there are 25 faculties with courses related to cultural professions, from conservation and restoration courses, to film production and editing, cultural management and music production and distribution.
As for the technical education, there are approximately 50 colleges in accredited higher education institutions with a technical profile in several cultural fields. However, these are mostly courses on music and visual arts, while the cultural management is not represented at all, which can explain the fact that the demand for professional training in culture is still high. The Training Needs of Public Cultural Institutions, a research carried out in 2016 by the National Institute for Cultural Research and Training, highlighted the main cultural areas with gaps in training: cultural management, cultural heritage, administrative management in culture, performing arts, librarianship and IT.
