Distance learning modules using innovative techniques for the clothing industry

Objective

Technological developments are having a major effect on the organisation of work in all sectors of the economy. Adaptation to change is the key to remaining competitive. This project aims to meet the changing skills requirements of the clothing industry by integrating the necessary, traditional skills into innovative training methods, using advanced technology.

The project will look at existing methods and classroom based materials on pattern construction and fashion drawing developed by the industry, and then create flexible CD-ROM based self learning training materials for initial training in on-and-off-the job learning situations. The training programme will be in modular form. Modules will guide users through relevant techniques, and will be organised in tasks and level of complexity. CD-ROMs will use interactive procedures e.g. video sequences and graphic presentations, and will include supporting instruction manuals and a self assessment facility. Modules will be available in Greek, English and German, and will be developed for use as independent units or as a complete package, according to user needs.

Impact
The project will develop innovative vocational training programmes, promote the acquisition of new skills, and improve the competitiveness of the European clothing industry.
