2024 MSHSAA Music Adjudicator Training Session Announced for Summer MBA and MCDA
REGISTRATION LINK
MSHSAA will sponsor two music adjudicator training sessions (Instrumental-Band and Vocal), which will be held in conjunction with the summer MBA and MCDA Conferences. If you wan to register for this training, simply complete the registration form below and save a copy for your records. An official registration will not be sent from the MSHSAA Office. Registration is requested so that we can have enough training materials. Walk-ins are welcome, but MSHSAA reserves the right to cancel the training if each session doesn't have at least 10 individuals registered at least a week in advance of the respective scheduled training. If the adjudicator training is canceled, the MSHSAA Office will send an email blast notifying their membership and will request that both MBA and MCDA contact their membership. We are planning some string specific adjudicator training later this year. Please be on the lookout for details.
The specific objectives of the program are:
-
To make the adjudication process a constructive and educational experience for all participants in the MSHSAA Evaluative Music Festivals.
-
To establish a consistent evaluation process by adjudicators at all MSHSAA Music Festivals.
-
To establish an ongoing system of certification for music adjudicators.
-
To establish an ongoing system of evaluation for music adjudicators
These training sessions are open to any music educator at no charge. In order to be certified to judge at any MSHSAA Festivals (both Solo/Small Ensemble or Large Ensemble), it is a requirement that the attendees have seven years of teaching experience (including but not limited to private, public, and collegiate instruction). Music Educator’s with less than seven years of teaching experience are welcome to attend and will find the training sessions educational and beneficial.
