Growing the future of music education

Professional Development Opportunities

Each year WSMA hosts a variety of professional development classes and workshops for music teachers at the Wisconsin Center for Music Education. Through our partnership with Viterbo University, teachers are able to earn graduate credits for many of these courses.

WSMA is excited to also offer unique learning opportunities directly to students. These workshops are designed to allow the student to explore topics from potential music career options to exciting music enrichment opportunities.

While most workshops are held at the Wisconsin Center for Music Education, locations may vary; please be sure to check the website for complete details.
