Purpose
Following this course, students acquire the sector-specific skills that will allow them to choose the most appropriate materials and techniques when using company equipment and, if working in an industrial context, supervise the entire production line.

Aims
Our aim is to train a fundamental figure in clothing manufacturing, who manages the cutting and successive assembly of clothing pieces. Garment makers are professionals who are familiar with the raw materials and know how to check their quality; they are able to use machinery for the realisation of fabrics and knitwear articles and know how to check its correct functioning. Depending on the level of ability reached, Garment makers can be called to realise prototypes and check their quality and wearability.

Participants
The job oriented courses are opened to all those, who regardless of their age and experience, wish to acquire or increase their technical skills and develop an aptitude for design in the area of garment making. In particular, the courses are aimed at:

• workers in the fashion industry (production, design, retail)

• people qualified in technical subjects (pattern makers) or artistic subjects (designers)

Organisation Of The Job-Oriented Courses
The lessons are of a theoretical-practical nature; each topic covered is presented with concrete examples together with practical exercises in a Garment Making Workshop. The teaching activities include the elaboration of a practical assignment, how to follow a pattern, the realisation of a design project and the production of a prototype.

Teachers
The teaching body is made up of university professors, industry professionals and experts.
