MUSIC INDUSTRY INTERNSHIP PROGRAM 2025

The Academy – Sound and Performance extends out of the VET classroom into music industry, tertiary and community. Through targeted and fully supported opportunities students find their artist identity, build their skills and experience firsthand what it is like to work in the music and creative arts industry. The Academy is a scaffold, a prototype, a network, a real academic alternative. It’s a structured framework for students to explore their passions, build skills and connect with industry professionals. Whether students seek a traditional academic pathway or a hands-on immersion into the music and creative arts, The Academy offers a comprehensive range of opportunities.
