History
In 2002 Geoff Hemsley and Darius Khwaja founded an independent higher education institution for popular music, then known as the London Centre of Contemporary Music. The following year it moved to its current premises at Union Street. The institution’s academic strategy focuses on the preparation of students for an unorthodox, competitive industry based on ideas, creativity and intellect.
Since 2007, LCCM has offered BMus courses in conjunction with Middlesex University London which has stated that it followed the University's regulations and practices.
In 2016 LCCM became an approved institution of the Open University and launched new degrees in Creative & Professional Writing, Digital Product Development and Creative Entrepreneurship.
In August 2016 LCCM changed its registered company name to the London College of Creative Media to reflect its extended range of undergraduate degrees outside of its core focus on music education.
