Training workshops cover key areas to boost capacity of fashion industry players and cover: 

  1. Introduction to Textile
  2. Fabric Design & Printing
  3. Patten making and Garment Construction.
  4. Business Development
  5. Marketing & Branding

In these trainings, it is our aim to equip each of our participants with the background knowledge and tools to create sustainable opportunities in terms of income generation and employment.

Some of our trained-participants have become trainers themselves, and are now training many others in their communities. Our trainings have direct impact  and is visible growth is seen in people producing garments, trading, marketing their products, etc. 

Our training programs are also inclusive and reaches even those marginalised members of our communities which makes it all worthwhile for us as a team that continue to work in this space. We have trained unemployed youths, women, girls, men and people living with disabilities. 

In addition, we also provide master class trainings for our successful model applicants and have also created pathways for our models to walk in international runways.
