A new fashion institute - Naledi Fashion Training Institute is all set for launch in Dar es Saalam in February 2011. The fashion school means to serve its students with the best knowledge in liberal designing intermingled with career preparations.

The institute would also cater to the need of an inspirational room for talented youngsters where they can grow their abilities, showcase their work and develop contacts with well-known designers and other fashion industrialists. The institute would offer short term and master courses, specifically devised to build up knowledge and skills of a designer.

Also the institute would be stressing on internships and mentoring as elements vital to development of skills required to thrive in business world. Course offerings by the institute would include courses on fashion photography, colour theory, textile designing, fashion journalism and accessory designing.

The institute aims at partnering several renowned fashion designers from Tanzania. Further the institute means to have designers and instructors from other international institutions as it’s faulty.

These instructors from other institutions would join Naledi by way of exchange programmes. The fashion school is also conducting talks with institutions in France and South Africa for procurement of talented staff.
