I'm so grateful for this program and the people involved. It has challenged me in the best ways and has taught me an immense amount of perserverance. I believe this program offers more than skill—also mental toughness. Going into a challenging industry, this has been highly beneficial.

JCI exceeded my expectations!! I loved the instructors and the atmosphere. My classmates were wonderful and I'm so grateful. I can't wait to see where I end up in fashion.

—Catherine / Fashion Business + Creative Arts Graduate
While I already had quite a lot of experience sewing beforehand, this course helped me a lot with fine-tuning my methods and process approach. The insturctors were great at adjusting their approach depending on skill level. I was definitely pushed to exceed my expectations.

—Nastasha / Core Fashion Design Graduate
JCI is such a solid school. The isntructors and program director really care about the students and our well-being and they truly want to see us winning. I'm so grateful that I was able to work alongside big names in the Vancouver fashion community and will always love the time I spent here.

—Ari / Core Fashion Design Graduate
My experience at JCI overall helped me find myself as an individual, let alone as a designer. Through experimenting and conceptualizing my creativity out in fashion and design as a form of multimedia, I have really built a stepping stone here.

—Hue / Core Fashion Design Graduate
JCI taught me how to approach fashion in ways I didn't think of. My instructors truly looked out for me and were there when I neeed them. My whole experience with JCI has been grand. Would definitely do it again.
