Ready-To-Go Training Courses
About our Ready-To-Go Training
Our “ready-to-go” training courses are a series of quick-start guides around a specific topic relevant to music-making with Learning Disabled people with complex support needs.
The courses cover tools, techniques and thinking around the specific topic, and contain valuable practical tips and starting points for inclusive music-making.
Each individual course lasts no longer than an hour in total and is made up of a series of short videos which break down all of the information into handy bite-sized chunks.
They aim to provide a standalone “quick start” guide, enabling you to feel confident put new ideas into practice after just one watch. They are also serve as an accompaniment to our more in-depth training courses and a handy tool for refreshing specific areas of knowledge. Once you’ve purchased a specific course, the videos can be re-watched at any time.
These “ready-to-go” courses are suitable for anyone who supports and makes music with Learning Disabled people with complex support needs, including school staff, care staff and family members.
Soundabout Ready–to–Go training modules have been created over the past few years. We acknowledge that our use of language and practice will keep evolving over time and therefore some words and phrases in older videos may feel outdated.
