SAE Institute Introduces Music Business Program

SAE Institute has added a Music Business Program under the direction of chair Stephen McCord. The organization’s Nashville campus is the first of seven SAE locations to roll out the program. It is one of several new entertainment media diplomas being developed by the institute, joining its established Audio Technology Program.
Last year, SAE tapped McCord to oversee the launch of the Music Business courses. Classes will cover recording company operations, music publishing, entertainment law, video production, multi-media technology, website development, marketing, distribution and entrepreneurship. Many industry advisors, faculty, and guest lecturers are expected to contribute to the classes.
The Music Business Diploma level course is a one-year (36 credit hour) program. SAE also offers a sixteen-month (60 credit hour) Associate Degree level program.
SAE has campuses or facilities in 56 cities in 23 countries.
