Beginning in the Fall 2003, Baruch CAPS will offer the Performing Arts Certificate Program. The Program has two major purposes: One, to encourage the non-actor into enriching his/her already established career choice, paving the way for those who have always wanted to be in the performing arts as a writer/producer/performer, and two, to provide technique workshops, networking and advancement resources for performing artists already established in the field; essentially a great way for actors/writers/producers to stay in shape and stay focused in their field.

The Baruch Certificate Program gives students the opportunity to explore the craft and business of performing arts, from the playwright's page to the actor's stage. The Program will give the individual an opportunity to dive in and be immersed into one of the most creative educational experiences imaginable.

A performer/producer who has completed the Baruch Performing Arts Certificate Program will be well-rounded in movement, acting, voice and specific disciplines depending on their chosen emphasis, such as directing, playwriting, producing one's own work, creative arts therapy, teaching and performing. A non-performer/producer who has completed the Program will be better qualified to obtain a job in the performing arts/entertainment field, such as advertising, design, real estate, photography and hundreds of other fields. Note that students may enroll in the certificate program or attend classes on a course by course basis.

The Artists/Teachers making up our faculty are the most experienced, talented and dedicated pool of teachers in the New York area.
