Specific descriptions of music teacher Training systems in European countries

In the framework of the EFMET project (European Forum for Music Education and Training) information has been collected on national systems for music teacher training in Europe. Two types of music teachers are distinguished in this overview:

A) Music teachers who work in kindergarten, primary and secondary level educational institutions (schools) as part of the national general educational systems and

B) Instrumental/vocal music teachers teaching in e.g. music schools.

NOTE TO READERS: Due to the Bologna Process, higher education systems are currently undergoing reforms in many European countries. Although the AEC has the intention to keep information up-to-date as much as possible, the information provided in these national descriptions may have changed recently. Please inform us if there are changes in the situation of your country, so we can adapt the information accordingly.
