Here is some more information............
Vocalist International Distance Learning Academy (VIDLA)
 
Vidla are passionate about the training of singing teachers and singers in the Contemporary (non-classical) field.
Vidla's Home Study / Distance Learning Courses are a highly effective and affordable solution for those singers who want to study vocal teaching and / or technique in depth.

The courses are rigorous but fun and will help you, not only to earn a living as a singing teacher, but also to become one of those important people working to raise the standard of contemporary vocal teaching everywhere.
The courses can be tailored to suit your individual needs - they'll even write new modules for you! Alternatively, they offer 'Free Choice' units, which enable you to study an area of your own choosing.

Vidla re based in London, UK, with a worldwide student and client base. They are registered with The Open and Distance Learning Quality Council, and have been approved to seek full accreditation status.
The ODLQC is an independent accreditation body recognised worldwide, and by all major UK education agencies. It has been at the forefront of accreditation for Distance Learning colleges since its inception in 1968. They are actively pursuing full accreditation, and hope to have become fully accredited by the end of 2009.  The courses are unofficially validated by The Vocal Training Association Calamus Extension College. 
Vidla are on the Register of UK Learning Providers, and you will find them on Learn Direct.

Home Study
Home Study, also known as Distance Learning, forms the backbone of what we do here at VIDLA. You study in the comfort of your own home, without being tied to other peoples' timetables.
When you sign up for a Vocalist International course, you will be assigned a Personal Tutor, who will be on hand (via email) to guide you through your studies.

The advantages are clear - you get to work at home, in your own time, but you also have the support of a highly experienced Personal Tutor.
It works like this: your course materials (written, audio or audiovisual) are uploaded into a secure site which is 'invisible' to everyone except you and the Academy staff.
You download the work, or read / listen to it direct from your computer, complete your assignments, then upload your completed work so that your Personal Tutor can mark it.
It's easy - and we give you complete instructions on how to do it, so don't worry if you're just a tiny bit techno-phobic!
There are courses for singers and singing teachers.

Nick Bembride, student of Vocaltutor Associate Teacher Clare Harvey, has recorded his first track.

Nick normally sings musical theatre and swing! A few months ago Clare took him to one of her husbands gigs to sing a small set so as he could gain some experience.  Someone in the audience approached him that night and asked if he would record an original song.  Apparently this music company are in the throws of working for supermarkets and departments stores e.g. M &S in providing background music with original songs and unknown artists as this saves the companies thousands of pounds in royaltiest each year.  They emailed the song to him and he worked on it for a few weeks and then recorded it.  They were so pleased that they have asked him to do 6 more!  
Have a listen and tell us what you think.
