Gig Based Learning

Gig Based Learning (GBL) is music teaching and learning that happens within the context of a Gig. We define a Gig as any opportunity to share music through any means by an agreed deadline. The Gig helps to make the learning meaningful and give it purpose, while being the ideal vehicle for the care, growth, and positive transformation of students.

We provide you with all the resources and support need to tailor GBL Gig Kits for your context. We’re able to provide advice around your specific pedagogy, physical constraints, virtual tools, and technology.

Soundlab

Soundlab is a practical, classroom-ready resource for teaching the core principles of music production and sound engineering. Lessons combine audio, guided instruction, and quizzes to build knowledge progressively, with no specialist teaching background required. It connects naturally into Gig Based Learning extension material, and underpins our Music Technology Short Courses for teachers.
