Voice Training and Habilitation
Section one is closed. If you would like to be added to the wait list for section one, please email us at sps.pwm.ce@nyu.edu. Section two is open for enrollment.
Voice rehabilitation restores lost vocal function, whereas voice habilitation helps someone develop new vocal skill and function, typically for a particular type of voice use or environment, such as singing, acting, or public speaking. Many vocologists are active in voice habilitation, such as teachers of singing, acting voice trainers, and choral directors. This course will teach you the principles of skill acquisition and perceptual motor learning, introduce you to the wide range of pedagogical approaches for singing and acting voice training, and how different approaches to bodywork apply to voice habilitation.
This course may be used to fulfill the requirements of the Certificate in Vocology. It may be taken to pursue this certificate, or as a standalone course.
