Rise Through Adversity
2020 was a challenging year that brought obstacles to many across the globe, including Avant Media Institute; however, the Audio Engineering community was able to withstand this adversity. COVID-19 opened new doors to Audio Engineers everywhere. Engineers are able to produce and work on music from the comfort of their own homes. In a day and age where more people are turning towards a more technological way of life, engineers who can operate through digital space are extremely important.
Audio engineers are able to create more business opportunities for themselves which helps the expansion of a community that we know and love. As audio engineers continue to persevere, Avant Media Institute will continue to provide a quality education for future engineers in order to help contribute to that expansion. Avant's goal is to foster the next generation of engineers that will reshape the industry.
