January 29, 2026

Oxford, UK, January 29, 2026 - Solid State Logic (SSL) has launched its SSL Certified Training Partner Program, designed to empower schools and institutions by giving them the tools they need to help students build critical skills, expand their professional networks, and gain a competitive edge in the job market. Through this initiative, students have the opportunity to gain access to world-class, industry-standard technology, hands-on learning experiences, and exclusive opportunities that prepare them for success in music and audio production.

Since its inception in May 2025, the SSL Certified Training Partner Program has grown rapidly. Led by Ashleigh Davies, Head of Educational Program and Services, this new venture has already made a significant impact, with 36 training partners across 53 campuses worldwide, including Collarts, SAE Madrid, and pointBlank music School. At its core is the Complete Access Educational bundle based on SSL and Slate Digital industry-favourite plug-ins, including the latest autoSeries plug-ins in partnership with sonible, with instructional mixing and production courseware from leading engineers and producers providing complimentary training to educational curricula.

Training partners are also investing in SSL hardware, further strengthening the connection between education and industry standards. The program currently spans the UK, Ireland, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, USA, Australia, and Canada. Students are actively benefiting from live training sessions, access to products with exclusive educational discounts, and continued support post-graduation via the Graduate Program. SSL Managing Director Nigel Beaumont comments, “Helping the next generation of musicians and audio creative professionals as they study is a key objective for all at SSL, as that is how many of our team started their own journeys. By working with key educational partners, we aim to provide not just the tools and training required to be successful but give direct access to the many fulfilling careers where they can indulge their audio passion”.

Educators and industry leaders have praised the initiative for its transformative impact. Alex Searle, Dean of Music at BIMM Institute, said: “We are delighted to partner with SSL through their Training Partner Program. This collaboration strengthens our commitment to providing students with access to world-class technology and industry expertise. By integrating SSL’s innovative tools into our teaching, we are preparing graduates to lead the way in shaping the future of music and audio production.”
