Berkleemusic Wins Best Online College Course Award Three Years in a Row with Guitar Chords 101


For an unprecedented third time in a row, the University Continuing Education Association (UCEA) awarded Berkleemusic with their Best Online College Course Award.

Guitar Chords 101 was chosen as the best online college course in 2007, joining past recipients Berklee Keyboard Method (2006 Winner) and Getting Inside Harmony 1 (2005 Winner). These 12-week, online continuing education courses were judged on lesson content, assignments, student assessment, course layout, design, and the use of multi-media elements.  The competition judges courses from all colleges and universities nationwide representing all disciplines.

Please join us in congratulating Guitar Chords 101 course author Rick Peckham, course developer Dan McFadden, sr. designer Robert Heath, and video producer/course developer Craig Reed for their outstanding work.

We would also like to thank Matt Marvuglio and Larry Baione for their vision and guidance with this course from the very beginning stages.

"Berkleemusic continues to set the standard for quality music education online," states Debbie Cavalier, Dean of Continuing Education at Berklee College of Music. "Receiving these awards from UCEA is recognition of that quality and a credit to the outstanding work Berklee's faculty and continuing education division have been doing."
