More about the course

Do you see yourself working in a studio, producing tracks for artists and bands? Or could you imagine yourself travelling the world as part of a production crew at live gigs and festivals? If your answer is yes, this is the perfect course for you.

As a student of our Music Production course, you will learn in our state-of-the-art music facilities. We share your love of music and will give you the tools and experience to succeed working front of house, monitoring mixes and producing music at events or in the studio.

The course will provide professional training in both live sound and recording-based audio engineering using equipment from SSL, Universal Audio, Apple, Digico and more! Music production is also included using Apple software.

During the first academic year you will be enrolled onto the National Foundation Diploma. Once you successfully complete the National Foundation Diploma, you will have the opportunity to progress to the Extended Diploma for Year Two.
