Welcome, music educators! The Indianapolis Children’s Choir is proud to support you in your classroom with resources, school visits, special event opportunities, professional development options, and much more.
Together we’re redefining what choral music education should be.
All your education resources in one place.
The ICC Institute is a national professional development experience for music educators who believe music can build confidence, connection, artistry, and leadership. Designed for music teachers, choir directors, and aspiring student leaders, this program provides learning opportunities in a supportive, collaborative community.
The ICC Institute is a one-stop shop for resources, continuing education workshops, classroom support, webinars, and more. Use all of these tools with confidence knowing they are curated with care by the thought leaders at the ICC.
We believe that community builds strength. Connect not only with knowledge, but with each other at meaningful networking events, by joining the Teacher Advisory Board, or taking part in mentorship opportunities.
