About the IMEB
IMEB was formed in 1998 by Dr Tim Smith and Dr Darrell Hines in response to many requests from teachers of music, speech, drama and theatre arts looking for an alternative examination system. Examinations are perceived to be more flexible and accessible than some other examination systems. All examiners are highly qualified and experienced teachers and therefore have a good understanding of the problems faced by both teachers and students.
Being an international board of examiners, IMEB delegates can be found around the globe, such as in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Sri Lanka. 2021 saw a change of leadership and new innovations to take the IMEB into the modern era.
