Voice for Life – Bronze and Silver Award Exams
We will be holding Voice for Life bronze and silver award exams in Northwest Europe based on our own syllabus and with our own examiners. This is a first!
Date: Saturday 13 June; at St Boniface, Antwerp, Belgium.
For more information, and to download the syllabus and application form, please see our Voice for Life pages.
Voice for Life – Gold
The Gold Award is the highest award within the RSCM, and replaces the St Nicolas and St Cecilia awards. Usually candidates have done the Bronze and Silver Awards before going on to Gold.
The examiners are based in the UK, exams are taken twice a year (deadline, dates and venues are on the RSCM website). Occasionally an examiner comes to our area, so the possibility is there for taking exams here.
Please go to the Gold award syllabus and page on the main RSCM website.
Voice for Life
With the recent publication of the new syllabus for Bronze and Silver awards, all future N-W Europe exams will follow the same syllabus as the rest of the RSCM, available here. We also provide some useful supporting notes for trainers and candidates, which have kindly been provided by our colleagues from Guildford Area. Gold awards continue to be administered centrally.
On Saturday 21 May 2016 Voice for Life exams took place in St Andrew’s Church of Scotland. ‘Contact us’ for more information on future exam dates.
