People argue that your experience is a key factor in the fashion world. That is very true but so is a qualification in your chosen field of a career. Like it or not your qualification can take you where your experience may never take you and vice versa.
Yes! Experience matters in fashion designing but with where the world is going one needs a professional qualification just to add to the experience. As the saying goes ‘you never know.’
1. In today’s world your qualification matters
A lot of people argue that your experience is a key factor in the fashion world. That is very true but so is a qualification in your chosen field of a career. Like it or not your qualification can take you where your experience may never take you and vice versa. So simply make sure you have the skills but also get a documented qualification for it.
2. It gives you an advantage over your peers

If you do not have the technical know-how you will have to pay a huge sum to someone to do it for you or forfeit the business. At the School of Fashion & Design (SFD) at BlueCrest College you do not only learn to sew, you also learn to be an all-round entrepreneur.
