Overview
Connection to industry
The course is strongly connected to the major examination providers: the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA), the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority for music curriculum (VCAA), and the Australian Music Examinations Board (AMEB). The course provides deep knowledge and skills for contemporary teacher practice, enhanced by highly experienced teaching staff and broad connection to schools, music studios, leading organisations, and the wider music industry.
The course values the importance of music education and advocacy, working closely with key professional associations, such as the Australian Society for Music Education (ASME), and Association of Music Educators Victoria (AMUSE), VMTA while also engaging a range of organisations such as the Melbourne Youth Orchestra (MYO) who work closely with Conservatorium staff.
Importantly, many of the teaching staff in the course are currently involved in collaboration, leadership and research across a range of national and international music associations, which ensures that students in the program are always aware of key and emerging research and initiatives.
