A number of music schools and colleges provide opportunities for in-depth study of the Suzuki literature, observation of master teachers, and apprentice teaching. These programs are directed by registered SAA Teacher Trainers and are usually two-year programs. They lead to a degree with an emphasis in Suzuki pedagogy, or may offer a certificate in Suzuki pedagogy.
