Ladies Tailoring
The Competency-Based Certificate program in Ladies Tailoring Techniques was developed in response to the demand for classic quality apparel for women's tailored clothes. The purpose of the program is to develop students' skills to a level of professionalism in classically tailored suits and coats. Students prepare for positions as tailors or tailor's assistants in sample rooms and custom tailoring shops. Projects range from fundamental to more advanced skills and processes.
