Education Forum 2023
Education Forum 2023

Many training institutes and universities present themselves at the Tonmeistertagung as part of the Education Forum.

Students and trainees generally receive very favorable admission to the Tonmeistertagung. At the exhibition and congress, they can not only gain professional impressions but also expand their personal network in the industry.

We are delighted that many dedicated students have once again submitted their exciting thesis papers for the congress program. Such theses are presented as posters.

An event as large as the Tonmeistertagung requires many helpers. Students who volunteer for admission control will receive a free conference ticket for the entire event. with us! become tmt33-helper

Rewind: The tmt32 Aftermovie

For many years now, a team of students from the HTWK Leipzig has been producing a video about the Tonmeistertagung; and the tmt312 was no exception. Many thanks to Tino Reiher (supervisor from HTWK), Alexander Fichtner (camera), Friedrich Haustein (sound), Niklas Stackfleth (editing) and Benjamin Hesse (editorial)! Especially the video of tmt32 is a real contemporary witness of this great event.
