As part of your assessment, you will undertake projects and performances that will allow you to utilise the various skills acquired throughout the course. The Extended Diploma is equivalent to three A Levels.
It is a complete programme and is therefore not taken with any other course. Having an understanding and interest in different types of music performance and production will benefit you personally and professionally.
The UAL Level 3 Extended Diploma in Music Performance and Production is a two year qualification equivalent to three A Levels. It has been designed to provide students with the knowledge, skills and understanding necessary to progress to further study and training in a range of music performance and production disciplines. The course is for students who have an interest in music performance and/or music production who wish to explore and extend this interest via a full-time, immersive learning experience. Many students will have identified a specific career in the music or creative industry that they wish to progress to (for example, performer, songwriter, producer, technician or engineer).
