Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy and Blas International Summer School of Irish Traditional Music and Dance.

A joint initiative, involving Blas International Summer School of Irish Traditional Music and Dance and Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy, was launched on the 30th November 2016 at the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance by Nicholas Carolan, Director Emeritus of the Irish Traditional Music Archive. The Blas Summer School ( June 19th–30th, 2017), located in the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance at the University of Limerick, is linking up with Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy to offer students an opportunity to extend their immersion in traditional music studies by enrolling in the Dúchas an Cheoil/ Scope of Irish Traditional Music course at the Willie Clancy School. This collaboration will offer students an accredited programme based at the University of Limerick and the Willie Clancy Summer School in Miltown Malbay.

This initiative will enable students to earn University accreditation worth 3 undergraduate credits (6 ECTS credits). Students wishing to pursue accreditation will be required to complete both the second week of Blas and the Scope of Irish Traditional Music Course at Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy.
