Leather Wise Training 2010

At Leather Wise we realise that understanding the product you are manufacturing, sourcing or selling is fundamental to ensuring customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, the knowledge required is often lacking (or at best a little shaky!). We have many years experience of training people from all parts of the leather industry supply chain and would now like to offer you this essential service.

All our clients have differing requirements so we run regular courses that anyone can attend and we also tailor courses specifically for individual companies. We can cater from one–to-one training up to courses of twenty delegates.

All of our standard courses include a user-friendly, detailed training manual and Leather Identification Kit for each delegate to take home.

1 Day Simply Leather Course (1 Day Simply Upholstery Leather Course)
This course is designed for anyone needing to understand the basics about leather in a short amount of time – What do we make it from? How? What does all the jargon mean? How can I identify different types? What can go wrong? How is it cared for? This course will start ‘from scratch’ and is suitable for someone new to leather through to someone needing a refresher or who just wants to know more.

2 Day Intensive Leather Course
Sometimes you want the opportunity to hold more in-depth discussions and have more time to get to grips with the subject of leather. The two day Intensive Leather course allows this while covering all the topics from the one day course – plus more!

5 Day Appreciation of Leather Course
This is a practical course delivered jointly by Leather Wise and the British School of Leather Technology and is held at the University of Northampton. During the five days we have a chance to get our hands dirty as we have a go at making leather! We produce leather using a footwear/leathergoods process and also garment and upholstery leather.

The Bits You Need to Know…

The Courses are held at Leather Wise Premises in Northampton
Northampton has excellent motorway links and is on the rail link between London and Birmingham. We can provide details of very reasonable local accommodation too.
