Where a clothing technologist can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a clothing technologist already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Clothing technologists work on the design, development and production of textile and apparel products. They carry out a range of technical, investigative and quality control work to ensure the end product (from clothing to household up to industrial textiles). They perform to specifications, improve production efficiency and quality while liaising with those involved in the production process. They liaise with designers, adapt designs to suit production methods, make and size pre-production garments, source fabrics and accessories, undertake quality evaluations of materials, check the quality of the final product, and consider ecological aspects.
