Pre-course experience or pre-requisites:
Students will be required to have completed studies at Certificate I and/or Certificate II level OR have completed year 10 (do not have to be currently at school, but the course is designed for school-age students).
The elective unit selection is designed so that students can gain the Performance specialty. This includes songwriting and performance units, however the additional electives include music business. As such, students do not need to have a high level of formal theoretical musical training, but have an interest in creating original music and working in the music industry as a career and/or become a self managed artist.
