Lashone Business School · School of Skills Acquisition
Learn a trade you can earn from
Hands-on training in fashion, beauty, catering, crafts and other trades, so you can start earning from your own business.
Our skills acquisition programmes teach practical trades that people pay for every day, through designated training centres. Choose your programme and tell us where you live, and we will refer you to the nearest centre. Experienced instructors show each step, from taking measurements and drafting a pattern to wiring a socket or icing a cake, and schedules are flexible, depending on the programme and centre
Courses run from one to six months, depending on the skill. Each programme ends with an exhibition of students' work and a graduation, and many graduates now cater events, sew for customers or run small businesses of their own.
