The third Global Conservatoire transnational meeting marked the start of the new academic year as delegates from all four partner institutions convened at Manhattan School of Music
Manhattan School of Music hosted representatives all four partner institutions Manhattan School of Music (MSM), the Royal Danish Academy of Music (RDAM), Royal College of Music, London (RCM) and the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna (MDW) at the third Global Conservatoire transnational meeting on 29-30 September 2022.
The third transnational meeting gave faculty an opportunity to exchange views and ideas, as well as share knowledge and best practices as they begin teaching new and recurring Global Conservatoire courses. At the same time, staff and project management looked back on the previous academic year and made new plans as the project enters its second year.
Global Conservatoire aims to develop online, asynchronous teaching specially suited for conservatory education. By the end of the second project year, Global Conservatoire will have developed and offered a roster of 16 courses, accompanied by an in-depth research project to evaluate the specific strengths and challenges of online, asynchronous teaching at conservatory level.
The next transnational meeting will be hosted in April 2023 by mdw – University for Music and Performing Arts Vienna. At the same time, a teacher training course will also be held, giving existing and upcoming Global Conservatoire faculty and opportunity to hone their skills and competencies in online teaching for conservatories.
