ANNOUNCING A BRAND NEW COURSE!!

'ENGINEERING AND PRODUCTION IN PRACTICE'

(Supported by Creative Scotland)

A long term ambition of Chem19's has been to write and deliver a high quality engineering course to keen young amateur engineers/producers who need that bit more experience in an actual professional working studio. With the support of Creative Scotland's YMI Fund we are very excited to have been granted the opportunity to do just that. We are busy writing the course at the moment and hope to be offering it from late summer/autumn of 2011. It will be open to young people of ages 18-25 who are resident in Scotland and who have some experience in the discipline and may have even already completed a year or two studying the field at college or university. There is a £50 fee for the course payable up front, which we hope offers great value for over 70 hours worth tuition in our studio.

Places are limited to 12 in the first year so please if interested apply as soon as you can. We will be repeating the course in 2012. For more information on the course and how to apply please download this document:

Applications for 2011 are now closed. The next round of applications will be invited in the summer of 2012.
