Throughout March FCFTA Leicester will pilot a numeracy based course with specific focus on the textile sector.
The Multiply programme is the first priority of the Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) this is to support on the levelling up mission to ensure that by 2030, the number of people successfully completing high quality skills training will have significantly increased in every area of the UK.
The Fashion Technology Academy have created a 6 unit textile focused multiply course that follows the life of a garment and explores the numeracy needed along its journey.
The units are:
- Introduction to numeracy
- Understanding the garment lifecycle
- How to cost and place orders
- Printing and production
- Fulfillment and delivery
- Sales, performance and review
This course will provide you with the fundamentals of numeracy needed to work in a garment factory, a buying or production office and the skills can support you with a career but also with skills that can be incorporated in day-to-day life by increasing the learners confidence with numeracy.
The Department of Education stated: “People who improve their numeracy skills are more likely to be in employment, have higher wages, and better well-being.”
