The Council of Ministers approved before summer 2012 the inclusion in the offer of studies of the Vocational training of the Technician in Video Disc-jockey and Sound. So you can study to be a DJ with a specific degree. The objective of the Ministry of Education is that students who enroll in this teaching learn to perform live musical and visual animation sessions and to execute the capture, direct mixing, recording and reproduction of sound in all types of sound projects.
The other day I listened to one of the professionals who was going to teach the course in Valencia. He mentioned that the demand for course attendance had been incredible and that the goal is to teach them a bit of everything so that they become true professionals. He also indicated that although there are DJs who earn a lot of money many of them have to be trained in small events by clicking, for example, pasodobles.
The courses pursue that they can do internships in companies throughout the two years of training and also with remuneration. Perhaps they are ambitious plans although seeing that Valencia and the Spanish Levante have a wide history of success with live music I hope there are many entrepreneurs who are willing to hire these kids, who will be willing and above all creativity to achieve success .
It seems to me that this type of course is launched will allow to obtain a professional training greater than simply being a flat-disc. I believe that this type of training will allow them to learn sound, master basic musical installations, manage technical problems, etc. And for me, the most important thing and where the talent of the kids will look: learn business and event management. That is where the real success of this type of training is because it will help develop the tourism offer of Spain, our first income industry.
And for those who think that this DJ's is a bit out of the little ones, we just have to read the Forbes article that explained that electronic music and dance that DJ's manage is a global phenomenon. The biggest professionals of this can charge more than 100,000 euros per performance because they are able to fill spaces. In Ibiza for example, for several hours ensuring high and permanent income to the disco that gives the space and infrastructure.
So you We wish the first generation of DJs good luck with title although we do not forget those who are already working without him and do an impeccable job. We hope that the title, training and the desire to work will facilitate that entrepreneurs are encouraged to hire and seize the moment in the face of the high demand for leisure and fun that exists in Spain.
