38. Striking the Right Chord: NASM’s Role in Shaping the Future of Music Education

In this episode of Accreditation Insights, we delve into the world of music education with two distinguished guests: Dr. Bradley Fuster and Dr. Vicky Furby. They bring decades of experience and leadership in the arts and higher education.
Today’s conversation centers on the National Association of Schools of Music—NASM—a specialized accrediting body that ensures excellence in music programs across the United States. We’ll examine the accreditation process, the tangible impact of NASM’s standards, and how the association addresses the challenges of innovation, diversity, and professional preparation in the arts. Whether you’re a music educator, administrator, or student, this discussion will illuminate how NASM helps institutions—and their graduates—hit all the right notes.
