IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ONLINE AND FACE-TO-FACE COURSES?
The syllabus for online and face-to-face courses is the same, as are the lecturers. The practical exercises cover the same topics. During face-to-face courses, the practical tests are done outdoors, in boutiques in Milan or in the city where the course is held. During online courses, participants have to draw on clothes from their own wardrobe to do the practical exercises.
