Abstract

The purpose in the study is to describe how one LG university used the results of a statewide needs assessment within the CES to return an emphasis to clothing construction programs and education outreach to extension clientele. As a result, an intensive basic sewing skills course was developed to train agents, beginning in 2014. A second purpose is to determine if the intensive in-service sewing training offered to agents is making a difference.
