REAL LIFE COURSE OUTCOMES
INCREASED SUPPORT AND FUNDING FOR YOUR SCHOOL THEATRE
I wanted to share the good news and thank you so much for your class! My school recently presented some changes to the School Board for my pay and I am happy to say that I will finally be getting paid appropriately! I will literally be getting an additional $10,000 this year, but I won't be doing any additional work - it's just that I'm finally getting compensated for all the jobs I have! It goes to show how poorly I was paid before! And they are also currently looking at paying me an hourly stipend for my Auditorium Manager work...finally!
- Drama and Choir Director, Auditorium Manager, Midwest
I've already began discussions with the school's admin team to expand my team and have been approved for another hire! … I learned more about what support systems should be in place for those of us in this field...
- High School Theatre Production Manager, California
...guess who is stepping in to help manage the auditorium?! ... I want to thank you again for the course as it has helped me prepare for the transition. We have traction for the district to reinvest into the facility.
- Teacher, Stage Crew Sponsor and Co-Producer, Pennsylvania
All that study and training has come in handy - and helpful to rely on as I moved forward with set design, safety, and student management and logistics on stage. A lot of great tools to use. I have also sent the administration many of the documents that I prepared during your course - specifically after something that that document could have prevented - over booking a space etc.

PEER CONNECTIONS AND NETWORKING
I've been able to gain knowledge and awareness that will benefit our Learning Center going forward. It's also been enlightening hearing from the cohort as we shared challenges and triumphs…The lessons that have been most valuable to me are the ones regarding safety and CTE.
- Acting and Dance teacher, Coordinator of Performing Arts Learning Center, Hawaii
IMPROVED AND FUNCTIONAL OPERATIONS
Today, I am working with the first event that the school is hosting, and sooooo much of what I needed to take care of (that no one else had any idea about!) had been covered in the course. My work in this course has fleshed out much of what was theoretical or imagined before. I have learned so much…I am well prepared to face the challenges that will arise in my theater. I have been able to learn whilst creating the environment that I will be applying it all to.
- Theatre Teacher and ITS Troupe Director, North Carolina
Going through this class has been an enlightening experience…my philosophy of theater operations has developed into a more realistic one…
- High School Master Electrician and Technical Director, California
STUDENT SAFETY AND EDUCATION
We have also discussed safety, which is a huge part of Tech Theater…The discussions and readings for this course have really validated how much value an arts and technical education can provide for our students.
