Description

Become a certified Burda Style instructor and open up new opportunities for yourself! Our certification course is a once-in-a lifetime experience that combines the chance to start your own business with skill building.

The “Burda Style Way” of constructing garments is a time-tested and highly respected method. This course teaches the authentic “Burda Style Way” of constructing a garment. We will start with the core preparation techniques before walking through the main core sewing techniques. Specific instructions for each core technique come from Burda Style magazine instructions and are always sewn in the same manner. For example, when a Burda Style pattern has an invisible zipper, it is always instructed to install the same certain way. Once these specific techniques are mastered and projects are graded, you’ll become certified!

Once certified, you’ll get added into the online directory of licensed teachers and receive your very own badge for use on personal sites or when marketing yourself as an instructor! You’ll also be able to take the provided sewing patterns and make as many copies as you want for your students.

What You’ll Learn: 

  • 7 preparation based core techniques including laying out patterns, cutting, seam allowance, draft-it-yourself pieces, and interfacing
