Purpose
Following this course, students acquire the necessary tools to analyse fashion trends, make a designer's idea feasible considering company needs and coordinate the pattern making division.

Aims
Our aim is to train a professional figure who fully understands the designer's idea and without changing it, makes its production feasible whilst bearing in mind the economic needs of the company. A professional who is able to manage the pattern range and its wearability, who has the industry-specific skills that allow them to choose the materials, products and techniques most appropriate for the use of the company's equipment.

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 artistic ability in the area of pattern making in High Fashion. 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 Pattern 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.

Admissions Criteria

The full-time job-oriented courses have a fixed number of places: those interested can enrol from the 5th June - 20th July, 20 participants will be chosen on the basis of the admission test results.

The Five Teaching Aims

Final Exam
