From 1998 to 2012, NORTH WEST SCHOOL OF DESIGN has successfully offered a 2 year diploma course in Clothing Design & Technology as a private FET (Further Education & Training) college.

NORTH WEST SCHOOL OF DESIGN offers a variety of part time courses but our main focus is the full-time training of future fashion professionals in either Fashion Design or Fashion Management & Communication (&buying).

Both these 3 year fulltime courses have been developed with the vision that South African Fashion education not only needed to globalize, but also needed to adapt to the changes within the global fashion industry. Both these fashion courses have been developed with focusing on globalization of communication, supply and manufacturing in the fashion industry.
