JMC Academy offers eight different courses in the creative industries. Each degree is six trimesters – a total of two years of study with courses based around or including many components of practical and theory based subjects. There’s a wide selection of courses such as audio engineering and sound production, contemporary music performance, entertainment business management, animation, game development, film and television, digital design and songwriting on offer. JMC Academy offers a concept called integration, whereby all students at one point during the degree will work on a project with students from other courses. For example, students in music performance, audio, film and TV, and entertainment business will collaborate on a music video project together. Each student takes on real-world industry roles for the project with the support of JMC Academy behind them. All lecturers are working industry professionals in their respective fields, and if students do well in their course, lecturers will help them with internships, work experience, or even in getting a full time job. In the music industry, a big part of helping your career to progress is to network and make connections. JMC Academy teaches students the basics of how to network and interact with like-minded people in their industry as it benefits all parties. JMC Academy regularly holds masterclasses and workshops for their students at JMC Academy, such as RaAb Stevenson, Dave Aron, Aaron Draplin, and NWA original member The D.O.C. Lecturers will also regularly bring in guest speakers for their classes.
