This year, the organisation received 159 applications, with 20% of applicants being female and 80% male. Samro remains committed to encouraging more female composers and authors to take advantage of opportunities that advance their careers in the music industry.

The programme, now in its fifth year, has become a key professional development initiative for our full and associate members. The 2024 intake of 70 participants is the largest to date, reflecting the programme's increasing reach and influence.

Two cohorts of 35 participants each will be facilitated for 2024/2025:

  • First cohort: Begins December 2024
  • Second cohort: Begins March 2025

Over an eight-week online course, participants will delve into vital music industry topics, including copyright law, contract negotiation, brand management, and financial planning.
