Guidance With Developing Facilities
Our Institutes are typically located within or alongside a commercial studio or a creative hub. As a prospective licensee, you may have a studio or commercial space that you plan to adapt to incorporate teaching facilities. Alternatively, you might want to build a new educational space from the ground up or within an existing creative complex.
Our team has a proven track record of building audio schools from scratch as well as seamlessly integrating teaching facilities into existing studios. We’ll help you to optimise or adapt a space with the relevant equipment of the appropriate standard required to deliver the outstanding student experience that Abbey Road Institute has become known for.
Flexibility is at the heart of our approach. We understand that each licensee has unique requirements and varying timelines. Whether you prefer a swift implementation or a phased approach over time, we will work with you to find the optimal pace that suits your needs. Our team will provide expert guidance on the various possibilities available to adapt your space, ensuring it aligns perfectly with the Abbey Road Institute standards.
Our Curriculum, Teaching Materials and Approach to Training
All Abbey Road Institutes worldwide teach our industry leading programme, the Advanced Diploma in Music Production and Sound Engineering which is the foundation that our education is built upon.
We provide all materials for local teaching teams along with guidance on teaching and learning using our Progressive Continuous Learning (PCL) method to deliver the course content in a dynamic and engaging way. This includes guidance on coursework, examination systems and supporting documents for student assessment.
You and your team will have access to detailed teaching materials, course timetables, lesson plans, teaching slides, presentations, exam guidance, workshops, guest lectures and more. We provide tools and guidance on everything you need at every stage of the course.
Our teaching materials are regularly updated and refined, incorporating the latest trends, technologies, and best practices in the audio and music education industry. You can trust that you’ll always be equipped with the most relevant and up-to-date resources to deliver a cutting-edge educational experience.
