You will not only graduate from AIMM with an Associate Degree in Music and Technology, but it is our goal that you will also have put together an impressive portfolio of your work and musical abilities.

This portfolio will benefit you and help with finding employment, or self-employment, in music or production industry.

With AIMM as your first step, your career opportunities will be endless. If you remain in good standing throughout the program, you will be eligible to take AVID Certification Exams to become Pro Tools Certified.

As an AVID Training Partner, AIMM offers you the opportunity to become AVID Pro Tools Certified as you progress through the curriculum. AIMM also focuses on Ableton Live, which bridges the divide between creative music production and live performance.

Using Pro Tools and Ableton Live, you will learn analog and digital music production, microphone techniques, virtual instruments, effect plugins, as well as hone your education in music theory essentials and keyboard skills for the digital audio workstation.

We want you to dive further into the bass guitar, but also learn valuable information covering recording and engineering.

“The more skills you can master and develop as a musician, the more appealing and prepared you will be for the music business.”

Important note: The Music and Technology Associate Degree is intended for intermediate bassists. Therefore, you must show proficiency on the bass guitar as detailed in the Admissions procedures.
