Is it possible? I was think of offering a course at a local conservatory... I sometimes wonder, where would I start? Has anyone here done this?

A) What's a conservatory?

B) You can take courses in home studio setup and usage???

Pima community college in Tucson had a program like that for audio /midi /home studio, but it was before the economic woes. It was part of classes offered under "ongoing education" or "community classes" or something like that . . . not for credit, and with instructors coming from the business / art community. I suppose they split the fees with the college somehow.

Think about all the things that you didn't know then that you know now that would have been great to know then.

Thats what you teach first.

Make sure you have the word ProTools somewhere in the advertising spiel then sit back and watch 'em roll in.

No point in trying to reinvent the wheel. You could start by looking at some of the reputable online course offerings. Several of those outlines should give you some idea of the range of topics you'd need to cover, and in what depth. Get a general idea of what most people think is a reasonable amount of material to cover in a semester first, and then work out the details from there.
