The demand for apprenticeships has been on the rise. The FEL team has experienced firsthand the benefits that apprenticeships provide for young adults and their employers.
FEL’s Head of Education Lan Leeder comments: “I can confidently attest the immense value that apprenticeships provide for individuals and the economy. By providing on-the-job training, apprenticeships equip learners with the practical skills they need to excel in the workplace while helping employers secure the required talent. Moreover, apprenticeships can promote social mobility by providing an alternative to traditional university routes.
“I’m thrilled to announce that the FTA now offers a range of apprenticeships in the fashion and textiles sector. With the trend of re-shoring production back to the UK, these courses present a particularly valuable investment, given the shortage of industry-trained individuals in this field. The apprenticeship courses comprise formal learning on-site at the Fashion Technology Academy and work-based learning with the employer.”
FEL and the FTA can now offer the following apprenticeships:
· Level 2 Fashion and Textiles Pattern Cutter
· Level 2 Sewing Machinist
· Level 2 Material Cutter
· Level 3 Garment Maker
· Level 3 Diploma Fashion Assistant
· Level 4 Fashion and Textiles Product Technologist
· Level 5 Diploma in Bespoke Tailoring
