Continuing Professional Education

The School of Design at the University of Leeds has launched the Professional Academy for Creative Enterprise (PACE), a pioneering organisation aimed at strengthening the relationship between industry and academia.

The School of Design has a long history of strong ties to industry, dating back to 1874 when the Yorkshire textile industry recognized the need for technical training and education for cloth workers. PACE builds upon this legacy, making the School of Design’s expertise accessible to a wider audience and empowering professionals with the knowledge and skills to thrive.

A variety of online and onsite courses in the areas of textiles, fashion and colour, is offered by the Professional Academy for Creative Enterprise (PACE) in the School of Design. If you are interested in the continous professional development services offered, please enquire via PACE directly.
