IS THIS COURSE ENOUGH FOR ME TO DJ AFTER I GRADUATE?

Upon completion of this course, if you would like to reach a more advanced level, then you can always apply for private sessions or for the second module that focuses on deeper aspects of DJ’ing as well as advanced techniques and direct evaluations.
WHEN IS THE NEXT DJ CLASS SCHEDULED?
On Average, we launch more than one DJ Class every four weeks. To book a seat in our next class, you need to apply for your DJ Course and book your seat by submitting your payment (Non-refundable). Once done, we will ensure that you start the course within a maximum period of four weeks. In the application form, you mention your free schedule and we will add you to the class that fits your timing.
Usually the DJ Classes happen twice a week covering around two hours each visit on a fixed schedule. In case of private tutoring, the schedule is more flexible and can be discussed closely with the tutor after submitting and confirming an application.
WHAT STYLE OF MUSIC DO YOU TEACH?
We are specialized in Electronic Music however we do not teach you what to mix, we teach you how to do so. When you learn the art, technique, and science of DJ’ing, you will be able to mix any style of choice, whether it is Pop, Dance, R&B, Techno, House, or even Dubstep, Chillout, Psychedelic and D&B..

DO I NEED TO HAVE ANY GEAR?
Our DJ School is fully equipped with the latest DJ gear.

If you cannot afford a setup at the moment, we recommend that you get the DJ Room Rental Bundle for which you receive a 33% discount
DO YOU OFFER FINANCIAL AID FOR STUDENTS?
At Per-vurt School, our aim is to always support education and grant our students the best we can to ensure they get an excellent learning experience even when their financial resources are limited. We believe that it is our responsibility to contribute in making education less of a privilege and more of a human right.
For that, we have come up with another financial aid that would extend your course payments over a longer period of time while you enjoy taking the course stress free. The plan is to grant you double the time it takes to finish your course payments with 0% interest. For example, if the course duration is 2 months, you can have 4 payment installments. This has to be secured by a banker’s check that will remain in the safe box until the full payment is completed, and by then it can be returned to the issuer.

DO I GET A CERTIFICATE UPON COMPLETION?
Although we do not believe in major benefits behind receiving a certificate in DJ’ing or in Music Production, and because those two domains are not considered to be academic, we do grant certificates to the students taking the “DJ Master Certificate“. Students taking Essential or Private Courses are granted a letter of completion.
It is true that hanging a certificate on the wall looks nice, but what really makes you qualified is your mixing skills and the ability to control the dancefloor.
