An Introduction…

Hello! Welcome to my blog where I will be documenting my experiences working with Tees Valley Music Service as part of my ‘Professional Placements’ module. 

Who are Tees Valley Music Service (TVMS)?

TVMS have served the Tees Valley region for over 50 years, providing instrumental and vocal tuition as well as hosting community events throughout the year. They are a relatively small operation but within their limited means they are able to provide memorable and life-changing opportunities to the young people on Teesside, regardless of their socio-economic background. 

Partly funded by Arts Council England, 

How did I join TVMS?

I started working with TVMS in October 2014, aged 16 as an apprentice. From my initial 12 month contract I completed a Level 3 NVQ in Creative and Digital Media whilst working day-to-day in the office. Towards the end of the apprenticeship I was offered a contract extension of 18 months to not only remain employed with the organisation but also to enrol and complete a Level 3 NVQ in Digital Marketing. Following the successful completion of both qualifications I was offered a permanent contract with TVMS in mid-2017 to become their full-time Marketing Assistant.
