Fully Funded Development Scheme for Newly Qualified Music Therapists

BAMT is proud to launch its fully funded Development Scheme for Newly Qualified Music Therapists (NQMT). This pilot scheme will provide a programme that builds on pre-registration training to support therapists during their first 2 years of practice. It will up-skill and nurture Music Therapists in order to build the best foundations for a successful career. The fully funded scheme will provide a combination of specialist CPD & expert lectures for the NQMT cohort as well as group mentoring. Year 2 of the programme will have part peer led CPD sessions/lectures and bi-monthly group mentoring sessions.

The scheme will initially run as a pilot programme and will have capacity for 25 NQMTs. To be eligible for the scheme Music Therapists must have qualified from their training course in 2022 and be a BAMT member.

We will be holding an information webinar on Monday 3rd October 6.00-7.00pm for those who are eligible and interested. Applications will open shortly after. The webinar will be recorded if you are unable to attend.

Please sign up for the webinar here.

As part of the development scheme BAMT will be recruiting 10 mentors to lead our group mentoring sessions. The application pack is attached to this email and closing date for applications is 7th October.
