BEAT has provided professional development workshops and teaching artist training for the past five years.

In 2020, BEAT began seeking accreditations to provide continuing education courses based on the outcomes of its clinical research to teach professionals how to leverage Hip Hop’s proven benefits in educational, clinical, and therapeutic settings. The goal of these programs is to teach clinicians, educators, and caregivers how to incorporate Hip Hop into therapeutic and wellness settings.

We’re also developing a course for kids — Alphabeat — a speech therapy tool that gets kids to practice speech by learning how to beatbox!
