In Financial Year 2019-2020, a special scheme was introduced by the Ministry of Arts and Cultural Heritage, by providing funds to the Conservatoire to cover exam fees for Candidates at Grade 8 (Certificate) and Diploma levels. This scheme has been an important boost and has been especially beneficial to hotel and freelance musicians who are highly talented but do not possess any certificate in music, and who have financial difficulties to pay for exam fees.
