How should I prepare for a career in the music industry in 2024?

Education

Before you make your first steps, make sure that you have done enough research, to ensure that you make informed decisions about what to choose to do. If you decide to go down the formal educational route, make sure that you are looking at the right sources that offer the appropriate curriculum for your needs. Read all the information that you can about the course and the institution, ask questions, go to open evenings and ask current students about their experience. You can view our music industry courses below, or contact us and speak to one of our friendly course advisors for more information.

Be an entrepreneur

Many people decide to work as a freelancer or start up their own small businesses. Historically, many event promoters, booking agents and artist managers have done this, creating themselves a career based on a local music scene, where they ‘cut their teeth’ by learning on the job. >With so much advice these days on offer for people wanting to go down this route, it is an exciting and often rewarding option.There are many short, evening and training courses delivered by colleges, universities and industry representatives, which can be an extremely valuable way to improve your knowledge when starting out on your own. These can also be a good way to develop your business network!
