Qualification holders strive to achieve high quality and aesthetic impact in their work.

In addition, those who have completed the competence area of music, music technology or piano tuning have more specialised required competence and vocational skills in their competence area. Qualification holders also master the knowledge and skills of the special areas of the units they have selected.
