In the fast-paced world of fashion and garment manufacturing, the ability to perform precise and professional garment alterations is an essential skill that sets you apart. Our Basic Alteration Techniques course offers a comprehensive pathway to mastering the art of garment fitting and modification, empowering you to transform ordinary clothing into perfectly tailored pieces.
Throughout this course, you will learn how to effectively alter various types of garments, including tops and bottoms, ensuring they fit comfortably and look impeccable. You’ll gain hands-on experience in industry-standard methods, from pinning and marking to sewing and finishing, all aligned with current industry norms.
By the end of the course, you'll be capable of assessing fabric requirements, executing accurate alterations by shortening, taking in, or letting out garments, and verifying final products against detailed specifications. This practical training prepares you for roles in couture, ready-to-wear fashion, tailoring shops, or even starting your own alteration business.

Tembusu Institute schedules classes on selected public holidays to cater to adult learners. Public holiday classes provide greater flexibility and accessibility for learners who may not be able to attend weekday or regular working-hour classes due to work, family or caregiving commitments. All schedules are planned and communicated clearly to students prior to course commencement.
Class schedules, including lessons conducted on public holidays, are communicated to students prior to course commencement. Students are given the option to select an alternative schedule where classes do not coincide with public holidays at the point of enrolment, subject to availability. If a student chooses to proceed with a schedule that includes public holiday classes and subsequently requests to miss or defer a lesson for personal or religious reasons, standard deferment policies apply. This may include applicable deferment or administrative fees, in accordance with Tembusu Institute's published course terms and conditions. No additional penalties are imposed beyond these stated policies, and the same approach is applied consistently to all students.
