Higher National Diploma (HND) in Music Production (Professional Practice)

Do you aspire to run your own band or music label, have a great idea for a music business or project?

Do you want to keep developing your vocational skill? Instrumentalist, singer or composer?

Do you want to work in the Music industry but don’t know where you fit in?

HND Professional Performance Practice is a programme designed with our industry partners to develop not just your craft at the next level, but also to give you the opportunities and experience of applying your skills in a professional environment ultimately with a view to setting up your own enterprise.

There is a perception that sustainable employment in the Music sector is based solely on chance and happenstance – this is not necessarily the case! There are many small to medium sized enterprises thriving, not only in the region but nationally, due to vision, drive and expertise, such as record labels and live venues.

We have spent time consulting with our industry partners to develop a programme that allows you to build on the skills you have, provides an opportunity for you to gain experience applying them in the real world and gives you the understanding to develop and launch your own business.

The qualification is structured under 3 broad areas for development:

  • Practice
    Develop your personal acting skills at the next level, through workshops, masterclasses, independent and group work.
  • Performance
    Whatever your specialist vocational area you will need to develop a CV through credible industry application of your skill. You will work on internal and external projects, producing work for potential employers from schools to the live commissions of industry partners.
  • Professional
    We will enhance your entrepreneurial spirit and channel it into developing your own business model. You will develop the know how to set up and sustain your own enterprise, from applying for funding to completing your tax return. Don’t consider your second year as your last year of education, think of it as your first year in the industry.
