What Stage 32 Next Level Education Offers

Next Level Webinars - Our Next Level Webinars are live online seminars and are jam-packed with information. Our webinars run a minimum of 90-minutes (although many of our instructors tend to go much longer) and include an interactive question and answer session.
Next Level Classes – Next Level Classes are longer, live courses formatted in a college lecture hall style. Most classes run about 2 hours and are fully interactive, covering a 2 to 6 week period. Although these are live classes, if you cannot make a class, that’s no problem. All classes are made available On-Demand within a day or so of completion.
From time to time, we offer 8-week Next Level Labs. Our labs are limited to 20 people and include one-on-one time with the instructor.
On-Demand Next Level Webinars and Classes – All of our Next Level Education (with the exception of labs) is available for purchase On-Demand at any time, and can be viewed immediately. Much like when attending a live event, when you purchase On-Demand Next Level Education, you have unlimited access to the material for a full year!

"Stage32's Next Level classes, webinars and labs provide a thorough education into all aspects of the film and TV business. My writing has improved drastically taking these classes and overall as a member of Stage32. I can't recommend the site enough to everyone I know who is a creative and may not live in New York City or LA and has access to classes and resources where they live. Great side and wonderful classes!"

A Letter From Our Founder/CEO

When I first conceived of Stage 32, my wish was to bring education to all film, television and theater creatives regardless of skill or geography. All creatives, no matter what their discipline, deserve the best tools and knowledge to help them hone their craft and increase their odds of success.

In the fall of 2013, we launched our Next Level Education series. Our aim was to bring in top industry educators and offer a variety of educational offerings at affordable prices. To date, we work with over 300 accomplished educators across all disciplines and our prices are amongst the lowest in the field.

Thousands of Stage 32 members have signed up for our Next Level Education. I'm overwhelmingly pleased to announce that we have a 97% satisfaction rate and that 91% of all those who have taken one webinar, class or a lab with us, say that they would take another. Both of these numbers are head and shoulders above industry averages.

Of all the resources and features the Stage 32 network has to offer, it's our Next Level Education of which I'm most proud. My team and I look forward to continuing to help more creatives realize their dreams through our instructive and inspirational offerings.
