Leather Wise Training 2012

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!

3 Day Leather Technology Course
This course for those who want to get a bit more serious about leather. It will teach you the technicalities of the how and why about each stage of the complex process of making leather. You don’t have to be a professor or anything like that to attend this course, but just a little bit of basic chemistry might be helpful.



The Bits You Need to Know…

The Courses are held at Leather Wise Premises
Northampton and Wellingborough have excellent motorway links and are on main rail lines from London and the Midlands. We can provide details of very reasonable local accommodation too should you need it.

Tannery Visits
Tannery tours are included in most courses and usually take place at a nearby commercial tannery or at the British School of Leather Technology.

Corporate Tailored Course
We will always try and meet the needs of our customers and are happy
to carry out courses tailored to the company. They can be held on the
customer’s premises or at Leather Wise – why not let me know what you
are looking for and we will try to help?

Our standard corporate course rate will be determined by the number of delegates that you need to train and can include an optional tannery tour if held at Leather Wise premises in Northamptonshire (please ask for details). We are also able to carry out courses at your site if preferred – this is particularly cost effective if you have a number of people to train. Why not get in touch and we can discuss how we can design a course that suits your company!
