The registration portal for the 2025 Symposium on Music Teacher Education (SMTE) is now open! The Symposium will be held at Butler University in Indianapolis, Indiana, from October 23–25, 2025. Registration includes access to all sessions, the opening reception on Thursday evening, morning coffee and lunch on Friday and Saturday, and shuttle service between the conference hotel (Drury Plaza Hotel-Indianapolis/Carmel) and Butler University.

Registration rates:

  • $250 General registration

For the first time, some sessions will be available for remote participation as attendees to live presented sessions, including keynote sessions and two rooms of presentations that will be accessible via a limited access Zoom link. Virtual participation registration will be $180.

We ask all who are planning on attending SMTE to register by September 23, 2025, at which point registration fees will increase. On site registration at an increased rate will be available as well.
