How can I study

When you register for an eTelestia course you should expect a structured interactive learning experience. Remember that following the course instructions guarantees the best results.

When you register to start a course, you will be provided with the Learning software. When you install the Core Application on your computer you can start downloading all the modules of the course. You will need internet access only to use the eTelestia website and to download your daily class sessions. However, you do not need to be online to study the course modules.

What kind of study space

We advise you to prepare your own learning environment workspace before you start this course.

Along with the computer, you will need a worktable on which to draft your patterns and/or designs, or a sewing machine for the Sewing Course. You will also need appropriate drafting paper, fine pencil, eraser, tape measure, pins, scissors etc. and the corresponding AB tools and templates, which will be provided in a Starter Pack together with the Learning software.
