MUSIC BUSINESS TRAINING

The music industry is rather like the Wild West at first: publishers, mangers, labels, A&Rs, royalties, copyrights, SABAM, clubs, festivals....where to start? Who does what exactly and where does all that money come from and preferably: your way!

So if you want to get started as a music professional, you quickly run into all sorts of obstacles. You probably don't know exactly how the music business works, and how do you get in touch with the right people? How do you protect your rights? How do you reach the right audience for your product? But also very practical matters cause a lot of confusion in the beginning. Do you have to go to the Chamber of Commerce and register with BUMA/Stemra/Sena? What about your administration and taxes?

In our part-time Music Business program, you'll really learn all about the business side of the music and media world. We take away all those kinds of obstacles step by step, so you can get started confidently.

So save a lot of time, frustration and get started!
