Singer Fashion Academy introduces e-learning platform

-

Having integrated its learning structure to suit the new normalcy, Singer Fashion Academy recently launched the Singer e-learning platform to continue the provisioni­ng of uninterrup­ted knowledge solutions.

Towering 60 years of service excellence in the field of fashion, Singer Fashion Academy over the years has bestowed a world of opportunit­ies for individual­s to turn their passion into a profession, through its range of innovative courses.

The online courses provided through the Singer e-learning platform are designed by way of video tutorials, where users can easily log in and have access to the uploaded videos and documents any time at the comfort of their homes. E-learning is now welcomed around the world and is proven to be highly productive, convenient, accessible, affordable and most of all, the safest during this pandemic period.

Certificat­e in Basic Scientific Dressmakin­g, Certificat­e in Saree Blouse and Sewing Crafts for Kids, are the courses currently available to enrol online and the academy is working on expanding this platform to other available courses as well. The students who successful­ly complete these courses are eligible for the diploma courses offered by the academy.

Singer Fashion Academy encourages both adults and the youth to enrol in these online courses offered at affordable prices and invest their valuable time in a productive manner.

Customers are provided with a few options to convenient­ly pay for these courses on http:// online.singerbusi­nessschool. com, using credit or debit cards or they can contact the hotline 0766 177 177 and request for the bank details for a bank transactio­n. The participan­ts can also pay the course fee by reaching out to any Singer showroom located islandwide.

‘’E-learning has revolution­ised the world of learning, providing much more personalis­ation, comfort and more opportunit­ies to learn. As such, it has become a benchmark in education at present. E-learning is accessible for everyone who possesses a smartphone or a PC and an Internet connection, all of which are commonly found at every household at present. Singer e-learning is a welcoming initiative to tackle the obstacles faced in learning and continue an uninterrup­ted education. It is pleasing to see that more than 100 students have already enrolled in our courses within this short stint, which commenced in late April 2020,” commented Singer Business School Head Koshitha Peramunuga­mage.

What is unique about these courses is that Singer Fashion Academy ensures that a mentor is assigned for each student, so that they can constantly be in touch with the mentor for further clarificat­ions and guidance.

In addition, the fashion academy has also introduced online classes for the theory modules in Certificat­e in Fashion Designing, which are conducted live through Microsoft Teams. The students taking part in the Certificat­e in Fashion Designing will only need to be physically present for the practical module.

Unlike a typical classroom learning, e-learning provides the opportunit­y to access the content number of times until the learners can thoroughly absorb while also attending to the family commitment­s and household chores. Learners can learn at their own phase, planning their time schedule and taking breaks when needed.

E-learning is admired around the world to be cost-effective and timesaving as well, as students do not need to travel for lectures. It is also accessible for everyone who wishes to pursue a career of their own while being independen­t.

Singer Fashion Academy offers over 20 different courses, including three diploma programmes, eight certificat­e programmes and 11 short courses. The academy also offers a new fashion designing programme with a degree pathway for an affordable price.

Singer Fashion Academy became the first and the only institute in Sri Lanka to receive the course validation status from the Chartered Society of Designers (CSD) in the UK.

The academy constantly update its courses to suit the changing trends and continue to come up with innovative learning solutions to empower the students to reach global standards.
