Fashion Design Certificate
Online – 160 Hours
Program Description
Fashion design is the applied art dedicated to the design of clothing and lifestyle accessories created within the cultural and social influences of a specific time. This includes all designs worn to create a statement about the individual or group of individuals. Hence, Fashion Technology is an interesting career option that you can opt for.
Fashion designers design clothing and accessories. Some Fashion Designers are
self-employed and design for individual clients. Other high-fashion designers
cater to specialty stores or high-fashion department stores. These designers
create original garments, as well as those that follow established fashion
trends. Most fashion designers, however, work for apparel manufacturers,
creating designs of men’s, women’s, and children’s fashions for the mass market.
Fashion designers don’t just design cloths; they often predict and create trends
and market designs. This process begins with drawing sketches by hand or on a
computer, selecting the fabrics and colors and trying out ideas by pinning them
onto a dummy.

Instructor Interaction and Grading:

We offer multiple opportunities for interaction, such as email, chat rooms, a virtual bulletin board for student comments. We will also be sending a newsletter on an ongoing basis and there is also an online portfolio area. Your queries and mails will be attended to instantly.
- The lectures and instructions are based on asynchronous learning models, and have removed the limits normally associated with real-time learning. You need not schedule specific hours of the day, where you must sit in front of the computer. Rather, you can learn at your own convenience.
- All Notes & Assignments are turned in as PDF files posted in our members section and student-instructor interaction takes place via e-mail or chat. Teaching is highly interactive, with ongoing feedbacks, assessments, evaluation, monitoring & projects.
- We have a grading policy of - A, B, C grades awarded to the student based on the evaluation of the student’s progress and other related qualities. The project plays an important role in the Grading.
- On an average, a student is expected to spend MINIMUM 10 hours PER WEEK. For Example- To complete a course of 80 sessions it would take approximately 8 weeks. But you could spend more time per week and complete your course earlier.
- You cannot skip or jump to another course before completing the previous one. The reason being we evaluate your performance and the course is designed in a very structured and systematic way, to make you understand every feature of that particular topic.
