program offerings
California College of Music offers several excellent music certificate programs of various lengths as well as an 18-month associate degree program in music performance, in which a student can select an emphasis of voice, drums, bass, guitar, keyboard, or songwriting & music production. Each program is designed to help students achieve their personal musical goals in an encouraging, creative, hands-on environment. The average student-to-teacher ratio at our College is less than 12:1, which maximizes the attention instructors are able to give individual students, thereby strengthening student learning outcomes. New students take placement examinations to determine the level at which they will begin each course series. We also offer two options for the non-enrolled public. Check out our private lessons available for all ages, and our short-term programs for ages 14 and up!
