Customized Courses
Design a tailor-made Erasmus+ teacher training experience for your school, conservatory or group. Adapt the focus, duration, and activities of our courses to match your context, your students, and your educational goals.
What Is a Customized Course?
In addition to our standard courses (Inclusive Music Education, Sustainable Soundscapes, and Rhythms of the World), Clasijazz offers fully customized versions for schools and organizations. Together, we can adapt the emphasis, schedule, and learning outcomes so that the course responds directly to your reality: your teachers, your students, and your community.
You can customize:
- Course duration (from a few days to a full week)
- Focus areas (world music, jazz, inclusion, dance, theatre or a combination of different things)
- Balance of practice vs. theory
- Target group (music teachers, whole staff, mixed profiles)
- Cultural and social programme
- • A school that wants a 3-day version focused only on inclusive music activities.
- • A department that wants to organize a job shadowing mobility.
- • A group wanting activities adapted for a specific age group.
- • A school wanting beginners-friendly activities for teachers with little musical training.
- • A school that wants to create a course combining music, theatre and dance.
- • A conservatory that wants a course directly related to instrumental teaching or group ensemble classes.
About This Option
The Indaliana Foundation for Music and the Arts develops a wide range of cultural and educational activities through its spaces: Clasijazz, Port of Spain (see portofspainalmeria.com), and Clasijazz Rural (see clasijazz.com/clasijazz-rural).

How It Works
We work with you step by step to design a course that fits your Erasmus+ project and your school’s priorities. The process is simple and flexible:
Initial contact
You write to us with your ideas: preferred dates, number of participants, school profile, and what you would like to focus on (inclusion, sustainability, global music, etc.).
Co-Design
We propose a draft programme with learning outcomes, daily schedule, and suggested activities. Together we adjust content, level, and logistics.
Erasmus+ Compatibility
The course structure is aligned with Erasmus+ KA1 staff mobility requirements. We can also host job shadowing mobilities.
Implementation in Almería
Your team attends the course at the main site of the foundation and, depending on the programme, in our Rural space in Terque and other local venues.
Follow-Up
After the course, your teachers return with concrete materials, ideas, and activities that can be implemented in the classroom. Participants receive the Europass certificate. We can also explore the possiblity to keep collaborating with other KA1/KA2 projects.
