International Association for Jazz Education (IAJE)

International Association for Jazz Education (IAJE)

International Association for Jazz Education (IAJE) was a non-profit voluntary organization that distributed student scholarships through its approved festivals program. Its annual conference was a gathering point for professional artists as well as jazz enthusiasts. Many considered IAJE to be a foundation of the jazz community, and its many programs to be a cornerstone of jazz education.Fact|date=August 2008

As of April 2008, the association filed for bankruptcy and ceased to exist. This was due to financial problems stemming from a lack of donations, as well as a staggering loss from the small turn out in the Toronto conference of 2008.
