Tuesday, February 15th 2022
Music heavyweights combine to deliver professionally taught, community led, industry recognised music lessons. British amplifier giant Marshall Amplification has joined forces with the Music Learning Collective to create a unique online educational platform. For those starting out in their music journey or wanting to develop their skills further, MLC powered by Marshall offers vocational qualifications, diplomas and instrument accreditation. Launching with RSL accredited grades 1 – 8 for electric guitar, drums and Music Production and an aggressive growth roadmap, the platform offers a supportive and inclusive learning environment that’s tailored to work for the student.
With three tiers of learning on offer at a range of prices there’s plenty of support to help any developing musician. There is the option for one-to-one online teaching with qualified tutors, students can gather peer feedback from the wider MLC community and all courses are professionally accredited by RSL Awards. MLC powered by Marshall has all the tools for students to track their progress towards their success, whether that’s becoming a grade 8 virtuoso, taking their first steps to playing an instrument or getting qualified for a career in the industry, all in the comfort of their own home.
Using an interactive campus map, students can navigate around a lecture theatre, seminar room, library and more as well as their course information. MLC powered by Marshall is the first interactive learning platform to bring the entire music industry together in one place. It features students, education professionals, industry recognised accreditation, manufacturing, retail and music professionals combining to provide the tools and encouragement to make a difference.
Commenting on the launch Marshall Amplification Managing Director, Jonathan Ellery states:
“Marshall’s ethos is about supporting grassroots musicians and the music industry both now and in the future. That’s exactly what this platform is designed to do. With 60 years of knowledge in the industry, we are proud to be part of something that offers people at different stages of their lives an accessible way to become a musician or music professional.”
Paul Hose, Founder and CEO of MLC continues:
“This platform is designed to build a bridge between education and the industry, it’s designed around making a career in music accessible. Linking with some major industry partners and developing a global education platform will be a complete first. The response so far has been incredible too. We’ve seen the community cheer on players as they progress and encourage them when it’s needed too.”
Suzanne Harlow, CEO of RSL Awards says:
“We’re delighted to partner with MLC and Marshall in this ground breaking project, which will broaden the reach of contemporary music education and enable industry leading collaboration”
