Academy

The Academy is for all worship leaders at any point in their journey, even if you’re just beginning! Whether you are just starting out or have been leading for decades, there is something for you here!

No! While we do host an online course as well as virtual voice lessons, we also host live workshops and trainings in different cities. In-person voice training is available to leaders in Arizona.

We have created two, semester-long academic courses on worship leadership. We partner with Christian High Schools as well as homeschool groups to implement our curriculum!

We believe that when a worship leader has a rock-solid understanding of their role and responsibility that has been formed by Scripture and the experience of faithful leaders, they are able to withstand the many challenges of ministry and the pressures of our performance culture. Only then can they lead long and well! We want to help worship leaders build a firm foundation that they can build upon for years to come!

We believe that mentorship is one of the greatest and most important ways that young leaders grow into their callings and potential. This course is NOT designed to replace or substitute for mentorship. Much of worship leading can’t be learned in a “classroom.” However, we are learning that much of this vital information isn’t being taught thoroughly in many traditional internship settings. It’s too important to be left out!

No! The Likewise Academy is intentionally inter-denominational. The reason for this is that we believe God designed worship through music to be a tool of unification in the body. We don’t believe there is one “right” style or genre of music as long as the leadership is wise and the content of the songs is faithfully informed by the Gospel and the entirety of God’s Word.
