The Institute

Our Partners

At the Institute, students have access to world class facilities and equipment in which to train and develop as musicians and performers.

Within these facilities, you will find all your favourite gear and equipment, provided by the leading names in the business who we are proud to be associated with. And don't forget, as a student you will also benefit from the Institute's unrivalled access to major names from the world of record labels, A&R, publishers and promoters, providing a unique opportunity to start building your network, a platform to get noticed and opportunities to develop your career post-graduation. From our academic partners to industry groups, venues and manufacturers, the Institute's partners are a fundamental part of our student experience and community.

The Institute has been great resource. The professional nature of the team has helped us to find some very valuable students, who we have gone on to utilise in work experience positions. They are always my first port of call when we need a pair of extra hands!

The Institute offers its students state of the art facilities, tutors of international standing and a network of high profile employment opportunities in both the commercial music and performing arts worlds. All these factors contribute to the development of a better musician with enhanced career prospects. The International Guitar Foundation is proud to work in partnership with the Institute on helping students to realize their potential.




Charitable Support


The Institute has always recognised that in addition to supporting our students in their development, we have a wider responsibility to the community of music makers and performers. The Institute is proud to be associated with two key charities that support those who make and perform music, young and old.
