Worship Training Week
UCB’s week-long Worship weeks are an opportunity for you to hone your skills by learning from some of the best trainers in US Christian music, who will be joining us in person from Visible Music College in Memphis, Tennessee. This rich learning experience focuses on music skills, theory, band training, and creative community with like-minded Christians, plus time for devotions and prayer. From intro to concert, in bands, teams, and small groups, you will grow quickly in spiritual, professional, and academic music pursuits in modern music and worship.
Be the artist that God called you to be – join us in enjoying and growing in music.
