CLO Academy: A New Comprehensive Hub for Digital Fashion Education
CLO Academy, newly launched by CLO Virtual Fashion, aims to address the rapid digital transformation of the design industry by offering a structured curriculum for users of all skill levels, from beginners to professionals, to systematically acquire CLO software skills. The courses are taught by seasoned professionals known as “CLO Instructors,” who have extensive experience training industry specialists.
After completing foundational courses, users can advance to more specialized courses, allowing them to master industry-standard skills at their own pace. The platform features a diverse range of resources, including video tutorials, practice files, quizzes, and individual support from instructors, all designed to enhance the learning experience.
Opportunities for Professional Certification
CLO Academy is also planning to introduce standalone courses covering advanced topics and techniques. In addition, experienced CLO users can take the “Individual User Certification Test,” available in English several times a year, to assess and certify their CLO skills officially.
Jim Simon, CLO Academy’s Academic Lead, stated, “As part of our ongoing commitment to empowering the digital fashion community, CLO Academy offers an expert-curated curriculum designed to meet the evolving needs of the industry.” He emphasized that the Academy is focused not only on software operation but also on providing practical skills that can immediately contribute to the design industry. CLO also actively gathers user feedback to continually respond to the latest trends and industry demands, aiming to offer a highly relevant and valuable learning environment.
