ACTASP project: “Aarchive of Cresponsibilities of Turism, of Arti, of Spettacle and del PCultural heritage". The ACTASP archive consists of the Repertoire of Professions and various integrated databases:

Repertoire of Professions: Directory of Professional Profiles;
Partners: Multimedia database of recognized professionals in Tourism, Arts, Entertainment and Cultural Heritage (includes the B.D. Trainers)
Educational Paths: Database of training courses for Cresponsibilities of Turism, of Arti, of Spettacle and del PCultural heritage;
Training Centers: Universities, AFAM Institutes, Schools and Training Centers and other training structures.

Currently, the Archive has typical Web 3.0 characteristics: it is multimedia, geolocalized (GeoWeb), integrated with social media (SocialWeb), multi-thematic and multi-territorial, equipped with advanced search functionality and WikiWeb. With the integration of databases, it will be possible to extrapolate various related information. For example:

For each profession, it will be possible to identify related institutes and training centers, specific training courses and recognized professionals.
For each training path, it will be possible to identify universities, AFAM institutes, schools or training centers that offer it, as well as the professional skills associated with that path.
For experiential activities, it will also be possible to identify experiential offers and tourist operators able to offer such activities

The archive is supported by further databases:

Organizations: Bodies, Associations, Travel and Tourism Agencies, Companies and other Organizations that in various capacities operate in the tourism, artistic and entertainment sectors and in the protection and promotion of Cultural Heritage, including Museums, Ecomuseums and Experience Centers for the Interpretation of Cultural Heritage .
Experiential Offers
Museums and Ecomuseums
Heritage Interpretation Experience Centers (CEIP)

Each database in turn is structured into thematic sub-databases which highlight certain categories of membership.

It is planned to transform ACTASP from Archive 3.0 to Semantic Archive (4.0), integrating it with semantic artificial intelligence. This improvement will allow a more effective search for information and the automatic generation of career orientation paths. The Semantic Archive will be searchable via text and voice, overcoming the limits of current metadata such as categories and hashtags. Currently in the testing phase, we expect to release the first prototype by the end of 2024.

Furthermore, within the ACTASP project, the establishment of a Partnership network called Competence Network (RdC). We invite all stakeholders in the cultural tourism sector, including universities, bodies, public and private institutions, trade associations and professionals, as well as industry experts, to join the network
