Audio Engineering

Since our inception in 1989, the Recording Connection has helped thousands of students launch their careers by placing them as working apprentices (externs) in real recording studios across the United States, Canada, Australia and the U.K. We do this by partnering with hundreds of carefully screened producers and engineers to mentor our students on-the-job and one-on-one. Many of our mentors are Grammy-winners who have worked with superstars and Platinum-selling artists.

BEING SMART ABOUT YOUR NEW CAREER AS AN AUDIO ENGINEER BEGINS WITH MAKING SMART CHOICES ABOUT YOUR EDUCATION. DON’T BE FOOLED: YOU CAN’T GAIN THE SKILLS, EXPERIENCE OR CONNECTIONS YOU NEED INSIDE AN OVERPRICED AUDIO SCHOOL CLASSROOM, OR THROUGH AN ONLINE COURSE--AND THE LAST THING YOU NEED IS TO START YOUR CAREER SADDLED WITH A TON OF STUDENT DEBT. WHAT YOU REALLY NEED IS TO LEARN ON-THE-JOB FROM SOMEONE WHO IS ALREADY SUCCESSFUL AS AN AUDIO ENGINEER. THE RECORDING CONNECTION CAN PUT YOU THERE, FOR A FRACTION OF WHAT IT COSTS TO GO TO TRADITIONAL SCHOOL.

Prepare for a career as an audio engineer learning directly from the pros, apprenticing (externing) under a seasoned audio engineer. Break into the music industry by getting inside it from day one. Tuition is just $9,400.
