The Grammy Museum’s Industry Sessions are now eligible for graduate extension credit, in collaboration with Inspire Edu.

The suite of online courses is designed to equip emerging music creators, professionals and educators with industry-relevant knowledge, and the Industry Sessions lineup includes immersive six-week courses such as Songwriting 101 taught by Anika Paris, Content Creator 101 taught by Yulia Gonzalez, Music Business 101 taught by James McKinney, and Music Production 101 taught by Marcus Marshall, with guest professionals curated by Live Out L!VE.

Participants may enroll hour-free for non-credit access, or register for graduate extension credit for a fee through the Inspire Edu partnership. Applications are open now for the Spring 2026 sessions, with enrollment deadlines and start dates on the Museum’s website.

“We’ve seen a growing number of educators participating in Industry Sessions as a way to stay current with today’s music industry,” says Arin Canbolat, VP of Education and Community Engagement at the GRAMMY Museum. “By offering graduate extension credit, we’re able to support teachers in meeting continuing education requirements while also giving them practical, industry-informed learning they can bring directly back to their students.”

Highlights of the Industry Sessions program include direct engagement with music-industry professionals via moderated Q&A, enabling real-time learning and networking; graduate-level extension credit through Inspire Edu; and diverse course topics including songwriting, content creation, music business fundamentals, and hands-on production using DAWs.
