In 2001 Warsaw Piano Workshop  - got its new formula and structure.
Now it aims not only at young professional performers, university students and competition participants, but is extended to the wide spectrum of piano education, excluding just three first grades of elementary level.

The course is divided into two groups: Group I includes professional pianists, university and chosen college level students;  Groupa II - other college students, high and primary music school students starting from the 3rd grade. All university (and higher level) students are automatically enrolled to Group I and all primary and high school students are - by rules - enrolled to group II. WWP Director, after consul;taions with faculty members decides about  qualifying college studets to Group I or II.

The Faculty of Group I consists of leading piano teachers of Poland, concert pianists and academic professors: Paweł Skrzypek, Andrzej Artykiewicz and Czesław Stańczyk.

In Group II - the members of Faculty have exceptional achievements in field of pedagogy, proven by many competition awards won by their students. They are renowned teachers of leading Polish music schools, representing college level (as adequate to the Polish music  educational system): Joanna Kurpiowska, Zofia Antes, Mariusz Tytman and Adam Podrez.

Zofia Antes, the international concert pianist and F.Chopin School of Music full time piano teacher works as Administrative Director, responsible for organization and scheduling (lessons, practice schedules), as well as an iterpreter (English) and Assistant for appointed pedagogical tasks. 

Each year Warsaw Piano Workshop invites a Guest Master Instructor to deliver a lecture and teach one day open master classes. In the past WPW got benefit from  magnificent work of Zbigniew Raubo, Szabolcs Esztenyi, Elżbieta Stefańska and Waldemar Wojtal.
