The assignments are well designed and very good learning tools. The course has the right blend of theoretical and practical knowledge. I am really enjoying it and after only completing a few assignments I feel I have learnt so much.

I am really enjoying the course! It's very in-depth, covering from choosing fabrics to manipulating pattern blocks to creating a brand identity. I am confident that I will be well set up to work as a Fashion Designer.
