Hi Raimond!
This is Kevin at Berkleemusic, I'm a student advisor here at our online school! I happened to be looking around at some of our student posts on the discussions and saw your question!
The online Blues Guitar Workshop is a very popular guitar course here! Although it is not as advanced as the Classic Rock Guitar Workshop course or the Jazz Guitar 101 class, we still recommend that students have basic guitar knowledge before starting the course. You should have about 1-2 years playing experience, with a knowledge in chords and tablature or standard notation. You can actually check out some of these requirements at the link below.

Intensity-wise, you will have an average of 5-8 hours of work per week from this class. If you are more of a beginning guitarist, you may want to budget more time in addition to this estimate.
To get an idea of how the course will progress, take a look at the syllabus link below. You'll see that there will be weekly assignments and lessons, ranging in topic from week to week and exploring different blues techniques, styles and artists.

I hope this gives you a good idea of what to expect out of the Blues Guitar Workshop! I also recommend calling our advising team directly at 617-747-2146, so that we can help evaluate you personally and help you find the best course to start with!
Just as a general reminder, class starts April 7th and we have an annual price increase scheduled March 24th. Enroll before the increase to lock in the lower tuition rate!

Kevin Carr
