Music educators have so much to consider when building a quality program, and many times this area of managing the physical assets and planning for growth gets neglected. Watch the webinar and learn how to apply Mike’s strategy he calls “The Four Pillars to Support Your Program.” Those PILLARS – Recruitment and Retention, Asset Management, Budget Creation, and Advocacy/Justification are explained in detail. Once you’ve viewed the webinar, you will learn how to take the next steps to build a strong program on those Four Pillars.
