Short Term Training Programmes are conducted in our Tailoring Training Center. Students begin with a 3 month programme and those that display creativity and aptitude are encouraged to train further and consider working in garment factories. Some have used the training to earn extra income by doing job work at home.
The target group is women in the age group of 16 – 30.
St James Academy has trained more than 500 women, most of whom have only a few years of schooling and no formal secondary school qualification. Since February 2020, St James Academy, Bangalore has tied up with Singer India Limited and is a recognized Singer Sewing School.
