About the 

Division of Education

Strong school music programs do more than transform students; they uplift communities. That belief has guided Conn Selmer for more than a century. Since C.G. Conn founded the Conn Conservatory of Music in 1896, Conn Selmer has remained committed to supporting music educators and expanding access to music education programs worldwide.

The Conn Selmer Division of Education (DOE) supports educators, students, administrators, and advocates through classroom resources, curriculum tools, professional development, mentorship, and program services to help music programs grow and thrive.
