As with all industries technology in fashion is constantly evolving and changing the way we work. In terms of fashion production the requirement for CAD pattern cutters has rapidly increased within the industry. In order to keep up with the demand manual pattern cutters need to upskill and adapt the way that they work to incorporate these new technologies.
The Fashion Technology Academy has been running Gerber courses – beginners, advanced and one-to-one, for several years now and has received a 100% success rate. Gerber and Optitex equip pattern cutters with the skills employers require today and we regularly run introductory 1 to 3 day courses in both.
As requested by our learners we can now offer Optitex by the hour for those that have completed the introductory course and would like further practice. Subject to availability Optitex at the Academies can be booked by the hour at the rate of £15 per hour. Please contact beth@fashion-enter.com to book.
