If you're serious about pursuing a career in the exciting and highly competitive audio industry, you're going to need an edge.
Located in beautiful North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, HIT will help you develop both your creative and technical talents. Combining classroom theory with applied practical application, the school guides you through all aspects of the recording and post production processes.
HIT differs from other audio schools, because here you're always in the studio environment. Class sizes remain small so everyone gets a complete 'hands on' education. We provide every student with their own classroom digital audio workstation, loaded with the latest software and hardware, which functions as their own mini production studio.
Our courses cover the most widely used professional audio software programs, recording platforms, and production equipment: Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton Live, and more.
Other subjects covered in the full time Audio Engineering and Music Production Program include Record Production, Electronic Music and Beat Creation, Surround Sound Mixing and Mastering, Sound Design, Music Business, Sound for Film and New Media, Digital Post Production, Songwriting, Studio Design, Music Theory, Live Sound, and more.
Harbourside Institute of Technology is one of Canada's only Digi Design (Pro Tools) authorized training centres. Pro Tools certification programs are included in our full time audio engineering programs, or can be taken separately.
Harbourside IT offers several Audio Engineering Programs:
Audio Engineering & Music Production (Diploma Program)
Advanced Production and Career Portfolio Development Program
Pro Tools 101, 110, 130, 201 and 210 Certification
Basic Recording Techniques (Certificate Program)

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 youíve 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.
