What's Next? Navigating Post-Graduate Life
Where or what next? - The question many music grads are asked or ask themselves as they inch towards graduation. As the anticipation elevates through this process, decision-making becomes a vital tool. How can students take the skills they’ve learned in life/school and find jobs that correlate with their existing experience? In this presentation, we’ll discuss a variety of career paths music students can take, questions to ask yourself or your students, and additional tips to prepare for yours or their career of choice!
