Education

We offer 2-year higher vocational programs for those who wish to enter the industry. Theory is combined with workplace learning (LIA). The internship period corresponds to 25% of the program duration. For textile technicians, it is almost 50%. The teachers are from the industry. Trips within Europe to visit textile production, exhibitions and trends. The education takes place at Textile Fashion Center, Borås, Sweden.

For those who are already part of the industry and want to develop further we offer higher vocational courses and independent online courses.

We also tailor educational packages for fashion and textile companies. We create unique lectures, workshops, or specific course packages tailored to your needs.
