Certificate IV in Music

Our Certificate IV in Music CUS40101 course aims to meet the needs of the contemporary music industry by preparing musicians capable of being employed in a variety of workplace environments. You will be provided with a solid grounding in ensemble and solo performance craft, analysis, critical listening, composition and music technology including live sound and MIDI. Students have access to well equipped rehearsal facilities and a 21 machine computer music lab with a wide range of the latest production, arranging, composition and multimedia software.

Location

All of the Certificate IV courses are delivered at the Sunbury campus.

Opportunities for further study

Articulation pathways exist from the Certificate IV programs into the Diploma programs and then into Victoria University's Bachelor of Music courses.

How long is the course?

All of the Certificate IV courses are offered on a full time basis over 1 year.

How much are the fees?

You will only pay TAFE fees for the Certificate IV and Diploma courses - in other words, you will not pay the HECS Higher Education Fee. As a guide, our fees in 2008 were around $1100. These fees are subject to change. Please visit: http://www.vu.edu.au/Future_Students/index.aspx for more up to date information. Materials such as books and recording media are extra - expect to pay approximately $200. Fee exemptions and concessions are available depending on eligibility.
