An MTNA collegiate chapter is the future music teacher's connection with the larger community of committed music professionals -- a community committed to inspiring and developing the utmost professionalism in all its members. MTNA collegiate chapters provide a way to fill gaps -- to provide the information and experience necessary to complete an education as both a knowledgeable, inspiring music teacher and a successful entrepreneur.

MTNA Collegiate Chapter of the Year This
annual award recognizes a collegiate chapter, which exemplifies
outstanding self- and member-promotion and effective community
outreach. The grant is to be used during the following academic
year for educational projects. Forming a Collegiate Chapter Many of today’s music students look to their future with an uncertain eye at best. College and university music training, while providing important pedagogical and performance experience, often does not address other important issues—setting up a music studio, the latest technological innovations and legal issues affecting the daily activities of an independent music teacher. Where can hopeful future music teachers gain the knowledge to aid them in operating a successful studio and business? Collegiate students can gain this important
knowledge through membership in an MTNA collegiate chapter. MTNA
collegiate chapters provide educational, musical, social and professional
experiences that augment the student’s formal course of study, acquaint students
with professional opportunities and career options in the field of music, and
develop professional leadership skills. Collegiate chapters also provide
an important opportunity for MTNA college faculty members to increase their
participation in MTNA activities by becoming a collegiate chapter advisor.
MTNA collegiate chapters may be formed by an
affiliated state association. Each collegiate chapter must have a sponsor
or advisor who is an active member of the state and national associations.
Students must be enrolled in a college or university to become a member of a
collegiate chapter. Click here for more information. |
