Voice Study Centre increases training provision with ITOL-accredited courses

Wednesday 21st June 2023

 

We are delighted to announce that we have received accreditation from the Institute of Training & Occupational Learning (ITOL) – the UK’s elite professional body for trainers and L&D professionals – demonstrating our commitment to the highest quality of training delivery. This means our training and quality assurance is benchmarked against international standards, and our students will have a globally recognised certification.

This full accreditation coincides with an expansion of our portfolio of short online courses which sit alongside our popular MA Professional Practice (Voice Pedagogy) programme.

In partnership with leading industry experts, we’re offering a range of cutting-edge courses over the coming months, each one offering an accessible and affordable way to support Continuing Professional Development (CPD) while being validated by a globally recognised certification.

Kerrie Obert’s two-week ‘Certificate In Vocal Pedagogy: The ‘What, Why And How’ Of Vocal Pedagogy’ is available in July 2023, while Heidi Moss’ six-week ‘Voice Professional Certificate: Applied Neuroscience and Voice’ runs across September and October 2023. In addition, Gökçe Kutsal leads a six-week ‘Voice Professional Certificate: Acoustics and Voice Teaching’ course covering October and November 2023.
