What will I study?

On this course you will develop practical skills and textile construction techniques to make detailed fashion/textile items, to an appropriate standard of quality. You will also develop an understanding of textile properties, characteristics and technologies, item development, fashion/textile trends and factors that affect fashion/textile choice.

The course also enables you to develop important skills, attitudes and attributes related to fashion and textiles that are transferable to other contexts including problem-solving skills and communication skills.

It may also contribute towards the development of numeracy skills through the measurement of textiles and the timing of production.
