Graduate ready to work as a DJ.
Twelve months from first mix to a headliner set and a professional EPK. The DJ Full Program builds your technique, your portfolio, and your artist identity on the setup that matches the career you’re picturing: CDJs and Rekordbox, or Serato.
- 28 Broadway, NYC
- 3 sections
- Finished work at every level
Most DJs don’t get real booth time until they’re already booked. We flip that: every section runs on professional gear in a real booth environment.
Performance starts before you touch the decks. Library prep, cue management, and set curation are trained alongside mixing technique, so your whole workflow is tight.
You leave with recorded mixes, filmed sets, artist branding, and performance materials, everything a working DJ needs to start getting booked.

Both programs run the same 12-month structure and end with a headliner set and EPK. The setup decides your workflow and the rooms you’ll be ready for first.
