What is MUSIC:ED?

MUSIC:ED is Music8's international platform for music education.

It brings together useful, relevant and current content in one place – from news and commentary to events, courses, jobs, opportunities and organisations.

The aim is to help users discover what is happening across the music education sector, follow organisations of interest, and connect with the people, ideas and opportunities shaping music education worldwide.

Organisation LivePages

A MUSIC:ED LivePage gives an organisation a substantial and credible presence on the platform.

Rather than a simple directory entry, a LivePage can bring together profile information, imagery, links, published content, events, opportunities and other relevant material in one place.

This helps users understand who an organisation is, what it does and how it contributes to the music education sector.

LivePages are particularly relevant for exam boards, awarding bodies, schools, higher education institutions, publishers, technology providers, conferences, festivals, arts organisations and specialist providers.

04

Membership accounts and following

User membership accounts are being introduced as part of the wider Music8 ecosystem. When accounts are live, MUSIC:ED members will be able to build a more personalised relationship with the platform.

This will include the ability to follow organisations and LivePages, making it easier to keep up with new content, events, opportunities and developments from the organisations that matter most to them.

This is an important step in turning MUSIC:ED from a useful discovery platform into an ongoing professional network for music education.

05

For organisations and partners

MUSIC:ED is not only for readers. It also provides a practical publishing and discovery environment for organisations working in music education.

Depending on the relationship and package, organisations can build a LivePage, submit news, promote events, publish opportunities, advertise jobs and connect with specialist audiences through the wider Music8 network.

As Music8 Console develops, organisations will increasingly be able to manage their information and content through a shared dashboard.
