<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">In addition to the Emil Fries school in Vancouver WA, there are several other piano technology programs: The North Bennet St School has a two year program in piano tuning repair, and rebuilding ( in the second year), Chicago School of Piano Technology offers a one year program, Minnesota offers a program as well, I believe Larry Crab has a program in Georgia, Randy Potter has a corespondence course, and The University of Western Ontario has a one year program in piano tuning and rebuilding. I am partial to The North Bennet St School (as I am an alumni). I've also heard some good things about the University of Western Ontario. All of these programs offer certificates as opposed to degrees. <BR><BR>--- On <B>Mon, 8/25/08, Karen Lindsley <I><36keys@gmail.com></I></B> wrote:<BR>

<DIV id=yiv431524809>There is a two year program for the blind in Vancouver Washington at the School of Piano Technology for the Blind. This is a certificate program as opposed to a degree program, but certainly prepares you for entry level work.<BR><BR>

<DIV>Are there any degrees in Piano Technology currently offered in the U.S., besides Florida State's Masters program? I know we've posted numerous things in the past about this with many CAUTs starting classes, etc. but has anyone succeeded in getting an associate or bachelors degree going?? </DIV>

<DIV>Thanks all.</DIV>
