The RCM Certificate Program is a comprehensive and effectively sequenced system of music study and standard of assessment that provides a clear path for well-rounded musical training. From beginner to advanced levels, the program offers consistent and meaningful structure for recognizing achievement and rewarding excellence. Students attain a level of musical proficiency necessary to learn music independently which is intended to facilitate a lifelong enjoyment of music-making.
The Certificate Program enables students to progress at their own pace and move freely through the system. At each level of study, a Certificate of Achievement can be earned by successfully completing a Royal Conservatory practical examination. Achievement in Royal Conservatory examinations is recognized for credit toward secondary school graduation in many schools systems across Canada and is an important element in entrance requirements for professional music programs at many universities and colleges across North America.
