 To graduate, each student must pass a written campanology/history exam; write and present a thesis on some aspect of carillon culture, e.g.history, campanology, technology, composition, playing technique; and perform an exam recital on the Mechelen city carillon in St. Rumbold's tower that includes baroque, romantic, and contemporary repertoire as well as works of their own (an improvisation, arrangement, transcription, and/or composition).The school also organizes occasional lectures, symposia, and masterclasses, often in conjunction with the Flemish Carillon Society and/or the "Koninklijke Vereniging voor Toren en Beiaard" .
