2nd year: Seminars with themes such as: music as a product, promotion, acquisition, communication, presentation, agreements and contracts, practical finance, tax and accounting, grants, copyright and educational projects. The final project is a project plan that includes all teaching materials by all teachers. Students work individually on the plan unless they indicate they prefer to work in a group. Students decide on the content of the project. During a final presentation, a number of selected students will present the project plans. The manner of presentation (only verbally, through a power point presentation or combined with a musical presentation) is determined by the student.Jazz:
