I work with a youth ensemble on a regular basis, but am not certified in music education. May I apply?

Absolutely! Our hope is that we will have a mix of trained music educators in need of artistic rejuvenation, as well as those working in the field with less formal training. We encourage applications from individuals who studied one instrument but find themselves teaching another instrument or a choir. Similarly, we welcome applications from professional musicians who have found second careers as teachers.

I have participated in the Music Educators Workshop in the past. Am I still eligible for this program?

While we give priority to new teachers, we welcome returning teachers as space allows.
