MusiQuE Training 2021

The MusiQuE Board and Office are looking forward to welcoming you to the next Peer-reviewers Training Workshop, on 25 October, 3 and 4 November 2021!

The workshop aims to offer elements of training and professional development to potential and confirmed MusiQuE peer reviewers: representatives of higher music education institutions, students in higher music education, representatives of music schools and representatives of organisations from the music profession – experienced or not – interested in becoming peer reviewers for MusiQuE in the future or in reflecting on their experience and practice as peer reviewers, or with a general interest in quality assurance and accreditation in conservatoires.
