The Academy community is influenced by Peter Ellyard who commented in his paper of 2006 entitled Preparing the Next Generation for 21st Century Success...
"For a young person to thrive in the 21st century and to achieve well being, we believe that a young person needs to develop skills and capabilities to realise a complex range of interrelated educational outcomes; in order to embrace a personal value system compatible to 21st century realities. This paradigm, called 'Planetism,' determines the nature of future markets, industries and ethics."
The next generation
The Queensland Academy for Creative Industries (QACI) is not only producing the next generation of successful artists, musicians and filmmakers; but also event managers, corporate leaders and innovative business people who are self starters and path makers in a dynamic and volatile global economy.
They work within an Academy culture that values individual and group endeavour, recognises and values difference and promotes social responsibility.
