OUR VISION, AIM AND PURPOSE
To create an Academy for the future creative pioneers, entrepreneurs, innovators and leaders of the music industry with the aim to: educate, elevate, inspire, create, disrupt and develop. We educate, motivate and inspire our students through a unique provision of quality content, knowledge and contextualised learning through unrivalled access to the industry.
WHY CHOOSE THE NOTTING HILL ACADEMY OF MUSIC?
The music industry is constantly evolving and reactive. We recognised that current music education doesn’t reflect or serve the needs of the ever-changing music industry. Our courses have been specifically designed and tailored to meet the needs of the music industry, meaning that at the Academy, we offer what other providers don’t. Our courses have been designed by the senior management team, who have been involved in both the music industry and music education for over twenty years.
During your course, your tutors will provide flexibility and adaptability tailored to your individual needs. Offering professional advice, mentoring and industry connections. Our tutors are also constantly monitoring new industry ‘game changers’ that will change the shape and future of the industry, and will bring this information and insight to you in the classroom.
Our students are the most important people we work with, whether you’re an artist, songwriter, producer, or want to own a label or a management company, we are here to help and guide you to realise your career goals.
