AMEB will present two Open Days to offer an insight into our inner workings, and as PD opportunities for teachers. Both sessions will include the same content, however Hobart also offers the opportunity to tour the new UTAS Conservatorium (Hedberg). Please see below for individual timetables.
We have some fabulous presenters including Sean Priest (trumpet), Rob Dugdale (AMEB Federal COO), and special guest speaker, Alyson Locke. You'll have the chance to ask questions of each speaker after their presentation.
These sessions are FREE but registration is essential.
