We're training the next generation of fashion pioneers! You are the future, and you'll shape the new world of fashion with your colleagues. Summa Fashion is located in the vibrant city of Eindhoven, where design and innovation go hand in hand. Here, you'll have the space to develop personally and find your own voice in fashion. You'll be taught in the region's new fashion hotspot: Microstad Eindhoven, near Central Station. You'll receive (practical) lessons alongside enterprising neighbors, partner companies, and fashion professionals.

As a Basic Fashion Employee, you'll work in a company that makes, repairs, or alters clothing. For example, in a sewing workshop, bespoke clothing company, or repair shop. You can also continue your studies with a level 3 qualification. 

In the first year, you attend school five days a week. You will have practical lessons for the most part. In the second year, you initially do an internship two days a week and have classes at school three days a week. This is followed by a three-day-a-week internship, and you attend school two days a week.
