New textiles qualification – we need your views!
Skills for Work in the Textiles Industry
Working with colleagues in industry, colleges and schools, the Scottish Textiles Skills Partnership has identified an opportunity to develop a new qualification – Skills for Work in the Textiles Industry.
This new award will:-
- introduce learners to a range of job roles within the textile manufacturing industry
- develop their knowledge of the journey taken by textile products from raw material to finished product
- develop practical skills used in the textile manufacturing industry
- develop learners to become effective job seekers and employees
- develop a positive and responsible attitude to work
- develop communication and team-working skills
A Qualification Development Team – with representatives from schools, colleges and industry – has been working to draft the content of this proposed new award and we would like now to consult with the wider school and college community to get your feedback.
The survey can be accessed here and will take no more than 10 minutes to complete.
If you have any questions, please contact Fiona Kennedy at FKennedy@glasgowclyde.ac.uk.
