4. certification
To be employable in any industry, you need industry skills. These skills must be recognisable as relevant and current. Much the same as studying a trade such as plumbing or electrical, our students study the Nationally Recognised Qualifications in Dance and Dance Teaching & Management to develop and recognise their ‘trade’ within the creative industries.
A misconception amongst many people is that students study dance to become performers and if they don't make it as a performer then they have to seek a new career path. This is not necessarily correct. As with any industry, there are various facets into which young people can immerse themselves i.e. stage production, choreography, TV/Film, costume design etc.
Formal qualifications not only support various career choices, they also include cross industry studies which can avail the student to transfer their skills into other industries.
During the study of any performing arts qualification at Arête, Academy faculty will guide students to understand how their new skills can be recognised across industries and which pathway will best suit them.
