Welcome to the website of the International Association of Schools of Jazz! The IASJ was established in 1989. It is a network of schools of jazz from all over the world. Students, teachers and representatives are connected through the IASJ. They come together during the Annual IASJ Jazz Meeting which takes place in a different country every year. The IASJ Newsletter and the IASJ Website serve as a platform to disseminate the ideas and visions of the students, teachers and representatives of the schools involved in the IASJ. Through all the connections IASJ members benefit in many respects. Being a member of the IASJ enables students, teachers and staff to broaden their horizons through contact with colleagues from all over the world.
