The
name, Wisteria, has nothing to do with the type of art and design we
will be creating. We have adopted the practice of identifying each class
by the name of a flower, which also helps to create a visual identity
for each class. This is not a universal City and Guilds practice, but
one which we like to use for Gail Harker City & Guilds Creative
classes.
The total hours of structured classroom instruction is about 225 hours,
including tutorials. These hours will be spread over one year, seven
months.
The number of sessions scheduled and the duration over which they are
offered is a reflection of the breadth and depth of the content this
course covers. Each class session is geared to the introduction of new
material. The program assumes that each student will complete assigned
work between sessions in order to stay abreast of the class. A percentage
of work to be accomplished for this course is completed in the classroom.
While the program is rigorous, those who successfully complete the program
to the required standard will be awarded the internationally recognized
City and Guilds Creative Skills Certificate.
The following work will be undertaken by candidates:
- Core Unit in Design Principles
- A set of ten machine embroidered samples inspired
from the Core Unit in Design
- Two machine embroidered items
- A folder of work to contain a variety of different
information, samples, drawings, notes, articles, photographs, etc.
to support all work that has been completed by the candidate
