Testimonials

"HIT gave me the skills I needed to be an Audio Engineer. The teachers are real industry professionals, and the hands on time mixing in 5.1 and recording bands was crucial. Less then a week after I graduated I got a great job with a production company in Denver, CO. If you want to make it in the audio and music industry HIT can make it happen for you. "
-Robb Davis

"Two months into my first semester at HIT, I was working in the industry, and have been ever since. I learned how to properly display myself in the industry, proper application of current industry-standard digital audio programs and analog gear, and most importantly, learned to understand practicality when producing music. It’s important to realize that the audio industry nowadays is slowly entering a digital “do-it-yourself” era, where the technology allows us to work from home, using a lot less expensive equipment. A lot of audio schools seem to be solely focusing on how to use massive analog consoles and work in an entirely pro-studio environment. I definitely got that at HIT, but I also graduated with the knowledge to achieve professional results, using extremely accessible tools. I would highly recommend HIT to anyone with a passion-driven determination to enter the music industry."
-Dave Badiuk

Prospective Student's Question:

... I plan to attend a sound engineering school in the Vancouver area. There are a lot of schools offering audio based programs and I was wondering what institution, if any, you prefer to hire graduates from. Any information regarding positive or negative experiences you’ve had hiring from particular schools would be very helpful in making my decision. Thank you for your time.

Answer:

Hi John. I hire solely from Harbourside Institute. They are the very best, with very good instructors used to the activities in modern studios.
Wish you the best.
