About

As Australia’s leading institution for the creative industries, JMC Academy has nurtured thousands of passionate creatives for over 40 years

With fast-tracked degrees and diplomas in the fields of audio engineering, music, entertainment business, acting, music theatre, stage management, film and television, design, games and animation. JMC also offers a Master of Creative Industries for those wishing to progress onto postgraduate study.

At JMC we believe creative education requires a unique approach and this is where the JMC student learning experience is different.

Every creative needs their crew. At JMC Academy, you’ll find yours.

Learn in world-class studios alongside a community of filmmakers, performers, musicians, designers, animators, game developers, managers and storytellers who are just as passionate about creating as you are. Through hands-on learning and real industry experiences, you’ll collaborate across disciplines, build your creative practice, and bring ambitious ideas to life.

Our courses are taught by award-winning industry professionals who know what it takes to build a sustainable creative career. From your first day, you’ll also have access to dedicated student support and professional development, helping you grow the confidence, connections and career-ready skills to thrive in the creative industries.

Real-industry collaboration
A campus full of like-minded passionate creatives leads to limitless creative possibilities. From designing a music score for our filmmakers or a soundscape for our game developers, to managing an artist or band, working on joint projects across different disciplines provides a realistic simulation of work in the creative industries and beyond.

Internship program
Our formal internship program allows students to engage in industry placements across established national and local companies including major recording studios, commercial radio and TV networks, advertising and design studios, major labels, festivals and major sporting events.

Launching your career sooner
Every creative journey is unique, which is why we give you the opportunity to tailor your learning and choose electives which may be outside of your immediate course. No need for multiple degrees: we want to give you the most efficient and effective learning outcome to have you out there working sooner.
