APME Miami 2026

❤️ Sponsored session by the MIDI Association

The MIDI Association is introducing a MIDI education and certification program to support schools and professionals, expected to launch early in 2027. Come learn how you can take advantage of this curriculum in your own institution.

With the advent of MIDI 2.0 and its ongoing expansion, the need for accessible and authoritative information on MIDI is greater than ever. The MIDI in Music Education (MIME) Special Interest Group, made up of experts from industry and education, has been working to address this need with a new training and certification program. Working in partnership with the NAMM Foundation, and with curriculum being developed by the team at SAE Mexico, the MIME group expects to release this curriculum under a Creative Commons license in early 2027. The course will be available free of charge through Coursera, with supporting documents available to educators who wish to integrate it within their LMS of choice. The course will be relevant and adaptable to learners from high school, university, and industry.
