The Patel Conservatory Theater Certification is a non-degree program that offers a Junior Certificate in Theater Arts and Senior Certificate in either Theater or Musical Theater.
The Certification Program is an intensive theater training program geared toward students pursuing acceptance into a performing arts high school, college program or as a supplemental training program for students interested in beginning a professional career.
Every student who intends to participate in the Certification Program must complete an application, present an audition and be accepted for enrollment into their appropriate track upon registration:
- Junior Certificate in Theater Arts (Grades 5-8)
- Senior Certificate in Musical Theater (Grades 9-College)
- Senior Certificate in Theater (Grades 9-College)
Daytime class options are available for students able to enroll through an early-release program at an academic school or to supplement homeschool and virtual school programs. Contact us to find a solution that fits the needs of your individual student.
All Certification Program classes may be taken by non-certificate students at the listed tuition price.
