New Year, New You!

Am I on the right course or should I consider an apprenticeship? Should I make the leap and start my own business? The choices are endless. If your chosen path is within the fashion sector then we, FashionCapital along with sister companies Fashion Enter and the Fashion Technology Academy, are here to help!
If you are 16 – 23 years old and considering a new start in the New Year then an apprenticeship may be an option worth considering. During the 18-month programme you gain real industry experience by working for a leading retailer or fashion brand and one day a week you attend the Fashion Technology Academy to train for the Level 3 qualification – a unique combination for earning and learning!

Fashion Enter – Production Assistant
Fashion Enter – Design Apprentice
Ankara House – Design and Production Apprentice
Playful Promises – Design and Production Assistant
Merchant Archive – Production Assistant

All of the above roles are available on the Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship – Diploma in Apparel, Footwear or Leather Production / Certificate in Apparel Manufacturing Technology.

Perfect Patterns is a six-week course, where you learn the fundamentals of pattern making: how to draft blocks and use them to create your patterns. Taught by industry professionals the course caters for beginners who can progress onto the advanced Level 2 course, an apprenticeship or employment.
The Stitching Academy course also commences again in the New Year and with a roll on, roll off system learners can join the course at any time.
