It has been another fantastic week with students visiting our Fashion-Enter Ltd / Fashion Technology Academy HQ in Haringey, London. Leading these informative, behind-the-scenes seminars and tours – FEL Director, Caroline Ash, talks about the groups attending this week (commencing 5th May 25)…
Caroline: “We kicked off the week with a seminar for a new client from Italy, the International School of Genoa. The group of 15-16 year old business students were delightful, displaying great enthusiasm and curiosity. Their lively Q&A session made for an engaging and productive seminar.
“Next, we hosted a seminar and tour for Belmont University USA, another new client. The students and tutor thoroughly enjoyed the experience, with the tutor remarking that they had learned more in 2-hours than in a whole semester (though I’m sure that’s a slight exaggeration!). Regardless, the feedback was fantastic, and it was clear they had a great time.”
Feedback from the attendees included…
