Welcome to the Textiles and Apparel elearning Portal

Textile Education and Training at Your Fingertips 

We provide multimedia textile and apparel education and training which gives you the convenience of being able to study at a time and a place to suit you.  The modules use text, graphics, photographs, videos and animations to describe and explain  the principles used in the design and technology  involved in the manufacture of textiles and apparel. They also contain exercises to allow you to test the knowledge you have gained and to reinforce your learning. A bibliography of further reading and a glossary of terms provide reference to further information.

The content is available at both fundamental and more advanced levels and is intended for use by employees within organisations involved in the design, manufacturing and retailing sectors as well as students at school and further and higher educational institutions.

TexTag elearning project 

The project has developed new European wide elearning modules in dyeing and finishing and apparel technology for on-line delivery via the internet for textile training. The modules are available in English, Czech, French, Lithuanian and Turkish languages

The project built upon successful previous work by the Textiles and Apparel elearning centre which has developed multilingual training materials in carpet and hosiery technology in addition to the Introduction to Textiles suite of modules and other specialist subject modules.

It involved 8 organisations from 7 different countries including the pan-European trade association (Euratex), sectoral, educational and business representatives.

The modules will "offer the underpinning knowledge to help technicians/craft level textile workers to achieve qualifications at the UK equivalent of NVQ level 3".

Please look in the modules menu, above,  for more details on these and other modules and for links to view demonstration versions of the modules.

The Project

 

The eLiTA ( eLearning in Textiles and Apparel)  is the third project within the  Leonardo da Vinci programme

This project builds on earlier work in the two previous TexTag projects which developed interactive learning modules in Czech, English, French, Lithuanian and Turkish languages in Apparel, Hosiery and Carpet Technology and Dyeing,Printing and Finising. In the eLiTA  project a new partnership will update the content  and develop  interactive internet based learning materials  in English, Greek, Latvian, Portuguese, Romanian and Slovenian for technicians and anyone who needs a good basic insight into Garment Technologies, Hosiery Production, Dyeing & Finishing and Carpet Manufacture.

The breadth and depth of content makes the modules suitable for study at both fundamental and more advanced levels and are  intended for use by employees within organisations involved in the design, manufacturing and retailing sectors as well as students at school and further and higher educational institutions.
The uniqueness of the project is that the modules will be available on line in more European languages for use by individuals, employers and educational institutions, thereby extending the range and consistency of training provision in these subjects throughout Europe.
