At Home Learning
Learn new skills this lockdown! The classroom maybe closed but thanks to the beauty of technology learning can still take place. We have teamed up with the well-established online learning provider for the fashion sector eTelestia to provide a range of online courses that learners can complete in their own time. Take your pick from online pattern cutting to technical drawing, upgrade your skills and get support from a qualified tutor who is on hand through this e-learning platform.
A former eTelestia learner commented: “In this world of everything online and everything digital you can be a bit on your own. It is difficult to find a good class where you are able to find online access and to work to your own schedule with the support of a human being, who can direct you, correct your mistakes and help you to progress quicker. I really found this with eTelestia.”
