ILMEA seeks to promote and elevate music education research through publication in the Illinois Music Education Journal and presentation of papers and posters at the annual Illinois Music Education Conference.
bridge mentorship program
Making the transition from a pre-service music educator to taking on your own classroom and rehearsals can be exciting and full of possibility, but also a bit daunting and overwhelming. The ILMEA Bridge Mentorship Program is designed to make that transition to in-service teaching and your experience as an early-service educator as smooth and fulfilling as possible.
FUTURE MUSIC EDUCATORS SEMINAR
In an effort to identify and encourage potential future music educators into the profession, ILMEA has created a forum for high school students at the annual Illinois Music Education Conference: The ILMEA All-State Future Music Educators Seminar. These selected students will be mentored and exposed to various aspects of the profession. This pre-professional opportunity is a strong first step toward a career as a music educator.
