Kangan Institute's Centre for Fashion and Creative Industries has been asked to host the WorldSkills Australia Regional Competition for fashion technology. The competition will coincide with the campus' open day on Sunday 4th August, 10am to 4pm. Visitors to the campus are encouraged to stop by and see the participants hard at work. Contestants will need to demonstrate excellence in the areas of pattern making and garment construction. Entries are open to all fashion technology students from any institute.
