  • Course fee and VAT

    The full fee for the 12 week course is €2,000.

    This includes all live sessions, guest contributions from industry professionals, access to exclusive resources, participation in the agency simulation, and direct feedback throughout the course.

    VAT treatment

    VAT is applied based on the invoicing entity and the status of the participant.

    • Business to business

      If you are invoicing through a VAT registered business (including Switzerland), no VAT is charged.

    • Private individuals or non VAT registered businesses

      VAT will be added, regardless of whether you are based in the EU or outside the EU.

    This follows the VAT treatment for services where the place of supply is considered Germany, which applies to our activity.

    If you are unsure which category you fall into, we’re happy to clarify before invoicing.

“This course provided some key insider knowledge that is usually only learned through experience and mistakes, giving me a deeper understanding of how this area of the music industry truly works.

Yunsong Jin

“The course gives me great insight into how an agent works and thinks. Guest speakers are very experienced in their fields. It also provides us this great chance to communicate with these “veterans” because normally it’s hard to know or hear how they work on the back end, which this course gave us great insight into how professionals work.”
