Motif, a US-based leading global fashion e-learning platform, and New York City’s LIM College, have jointly announced that they are partnering to launch a series of online fashion business courses. The collaboration will deliver LIM educational material to a global professional audience, including apparel and retail corporate training programmes.
 
The first LIM online course on supply chain will be released at the end of August 2020, followed by a course on sustainability, and advanced spreadsheet analytics for fashion professionals seeking to upgrade or expand their skill sets.
 
Courses will be 4-6 weeks in length (for 1.5-2 hours per day) and cost between $290 - $525 each. All instruction will be delivered asynchronously meaning participants can start a course any time they like and complete it on their own time.
 
Motif, an e-learning platform that offers advisory, course creation services as well as a community-based marketplace for professional training material is supporting the development of LIM courses on the Motif.org platform. LIM instructors will have access to Motif’s newly released course authoring tools and source advisory services, which are built for instructors, universities and companies to self-publish. LIM College will be the first higher education publisher on Motif.
 
“We started Motif with the aim of connecting apparel professionals around the world with the skills and industry expertise they need to transform their business, lives and careers,” Catherine Cole, CEO of Motif, said in a press release. “Today, we are taking it a step further through our upcoming e-learning courses with LIM College. Their addition to Motif.org is our first foray beyond apparel courses. The new course catalog extends our online training offerings for fashion, apparel and footwear professionals.”
 
“LIM College has been at the forefront of educating fashion’s future business leaders since 1939, fostering a unique connection between academic study and its application in the workplace. We chose to partner with MOTIF because their commitment to advancing the innovation, technical intelligence, and practical skills needed to succeed in the fashion world uniquely aligns with the education LIM provides,” Elizabeth Marcuse, president at LIM College, said in a press release.
