It all starts by knowing the Modeling Industry and the many different types of Models. It is important to identify which type you best fit into. When you can determine your Model type and ultimately what you want to pursue your career in, we can then determine the plan. Each type of Model correlates with an Agency that specializes in that particular category.
For Example: A fitness model may be represented by an agency that specializes fitness modeling. A runway model may specifically be repped by a Runway Agency.

What is the Model Training Agency? The Model Training Agency - a.k.a: MTA - consists of professionally represented Models who were just like you at the beginning of their careers. This course was created because we thoroughly understand the struggles that newer Models are subjected to.
These days, many of the top agencies specifically look for “developed” or “educated” Models that have an understanding of the industry and how it works. Why? Signing an educated model saves the agency's time and effort in having to assist in the developmental process. When we begin booking jobs, we, the Models, reflect the agency's reputation. They must feel confident in sending their Models out on jobs and castings. But wait, what exactly defines a developed model? Simply put, a Model who has a keen understanding of the industry and composes themselves as a PROFESSIONAL. This is key.
Education will not only put you in the top percentage of an agency's roster, but with consistent persistence, it will place you in the top percentage of the industry altogether. This course will equip each aspiring model with the tools, knowledge, and empowerment to play the game smarter not necessarily harder. Reach your full potential and run with it towards your professional dreams!
