The Australian Music Examinations Board offers a system of graded music and speech examinations, including publications related to the syllabus and examinations. The syllabi and supporting publications provide valuable frameworks for studies throughout school years and beyond.
A unique feature of AMEB examinations is that wherever possible specialist assessment in specialist instruments is offered - for example, piano examiners assess piano candidates, string examiners assess string candidates, etc.
In many cases, progression through the AMEB system leads to university entrance and the establishment of professional careers in teaching and performing.
