 "Education
is a major reason why many members join this organization, and why so
many stay."
Education
The
music education available to members of Sweet Adelines International
would be difficult to duplicate. Not only do members learn vocal production
and music, they also learn choreography, stage production, costuming,
makeup and much more. Training and certification programs are available
in the areas of directing, arranging, judging, teaching (faculty), and
more. Click here for more information on Sweet
Adelines programs.
