<\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>The ASIMUT UGM is an annual, two-day event taking place in the springtime with participation of delegates from the ASIMUT user institutions and core members of the ASIMUT team. The main purpose is to discuss and prioritise future developments, promote knowledge sharing and networking among users, and provide training in new functionalities. But it is not all ASIMUT – we are delighted to host a forum where staff from the world\u2019s best schools of music, drama and art meet, socialise and share professional knowledge and experience.<\/p>\n
The first UGM took place in 2014 at the Royal College of Music<\/a> in London. Since then, we met every year in Spring at a new school in a new city until COVID forced us to go online 2020-2021. We are really looking forward to a fully ‘live’ UGM, meeting up in person again in 2023, after last year’s UGM which still was bimodal, in-person in Aarhus and online.<\/p>\nThe UGM is brought to you by ASIMUT<\/a> software and participation is free of charge, including the meals mentioned in the agenda. The 2023 event will be hosted by Hochschule f\u00fcr Musik und Theater Hamburg<\/a>, which will be our German premiere for this.<\/p>\nParticipants must arrange their own travel and accommodation.<\/p>\n<\/div>
