    The nationally accredited Online Music and Technology Certificate program consists of 36 credits that are completely transferable to the Associate of Applied Science in Music and Technology Degree.

    Our music school also offers financial aid for those students that qualify.

    Why is it worth earning a music certificate?

    Can you imagine yourself or your band performing at Neumos or Columbia City Theater? Can you visualize it?

    That visualization doesn't have to stay in your imagination. One major step you can take toward this goal is enrolling at the Atlanta Institute of Music and Media.

    A lot of musicians outside of Seattle tie the city down to the '90s grunge surge, with bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden. 

    However, Seattle has launched into the 21st century as still an amazing music city with many genres thriving. A great way to continue that trend is enrolling in a music school.

    The Certificate program is offered 100% online and contains courses designed to provide each Seattle student with the necessary education to further their musical and recording and engineering abilities.

    But aren't YouTube eduction lessons free?

    Sure, you could take a music lesson from someone on YouTube in Seattle, Wa with a guitar or piano. But, you don't get the hands-on content, interactive discussions, and techniques utilized by music industry professionals.

    Learning music production and guitar or bass online at a music institute allows for flexibility within your schedule.

    That is truly the benefit of our music education school.

    Who is this Certificate intended for?

    Private lessons and online music lessons are great, but this program is designed for the intermediate instrumentalist of all ages over 18 who also wishes to gain knowledge in the field of recording and engineering, in order to open up opportunities in the ever-changing music industry.

    Also, consider the music and tech component.

    Feel free to search for a similar program, but the combination of music and technology truly makes this certificate unique. Instead of only focus on your instrument of choice, guitar or bass, you'll also learn valuable music production techniques.

    When you begin your job hunt in Seattle, WA having an accredited certificate along with being well-versed in organic instrumentation and music production will make you an incredibly attractive candidate.

    In addition, you can't overlook the advantage of an engaged and thriving music community. AIMM is the perfect opportunity to elevate your own skills along with meet other like-minded musicians, even online. 

    From inspiration to collaboration, AIMM is ripe with talented musicians putting themselves in the best possible situation to succeed.
