Course Timescales

There is around 410 hours of course content/materials and it is usual for students to take between 6-8 weeks to complete each module. Students can take up to 2 years to complete, the course which allows students to work at their own pace. However it is up to the individual student how quickly they wish to return work to their tutor for assessment.

A six-month contingency is available, to cover unforeseen issues such as illness, upon production of supporting documentation,  extending the course life to 30 months (2.5 years). The maximum for this extra contingency time is once during the course lifetime.

Aimed At

This City and Guilds accredited Machine Embroidery course is an advanced study programme aimed at crafters and artists who want to enhance their skills and commercialise their work. Ideally students will have a lot of demonstrable machine embroidery experience or must have previously completed our Skill Stage 3 course. At this level students will be able to continue developing personal research and technical skills to form a unique collection of work at a professional level.

Courses at this level provide students with an opportunity to develop their own individual style, experiment with ideas and develop their technical skills to form a collection of work at a professional level.

If you haven’t previously completed a Level 3 or Skill Stage 3 course then please do check with us first before enrolling onto this course.

Courses at this level again include a Professional Practise module making them great for craft business owners. Whether you teach classes, run a craft store or sell your own products you’ll be taught valuable business and marketing skills including working to client briefs, establishing costing models and how to promote your business and services.

"If you're thinking of doing a course, Go for it! Push yourself and dare to find out how far you can go."

Cathy Howe - Machine Embroidery

Myra Velk Machine Embroidery graduate

"My advice to anybody considering a course with the School of Stitched Textiles is to just do it. I spent months mulling it over, should I or shouldn’t I, was I good enough or would I struggle with the course. Everyone is so helpful and encouraging. I enjoyed it so much I wish I had done it sooner."
