I was honoured to represent the Writers’ Guild of Ireland at the launch of the competency frameworks in the IFI in Dublin last week. The Scriptwriters Competency Framework was many years in the making, so huge thanks and congratulations to all involved, and especially to the talented and dedicated authors of the framework.

Ciarán Hayden, Executive Director

“A great script lies at the heart of every successful Film and TV production. The great success of the Irish film and television industry in recent years is testament to the brilliant minds that create those scripts. The work of a screenwriter is a complex skillset coupled with the unique experience that a screenwriter brings to bear on a project. The Writers’ Guild of Ireland have developed a Scriptwriters Competency Framework to set out the skills and behaviours necessary to achieve career progression.”

Jennifer Davidson, Chairperson
