Lectra Teams With FIT, NCSU And Parsons For Education

Paris-based Lectra has signed Privilege partnerships with Parsons the New School for Design and the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), both based in New York City; and Raleigh, N.C.-based North Carolina State University (NCSU), to support fashion education and further strengthen the company’s relationships with the three schools.

The Privilege partnership provides an individualized approach and follow-up founded on a very strong joint commitment including support of teachers in their training efforts, professional skills development and follow-up, individual support for student projects, and more.

“We are very proud to count Parsons, FIT and North Carolina State University among our most valued partners, which demonstrate the value of our ‘Privilege’ partner program and the perfect fit between Lectra solutions and the needs of the fashion market,” said Veronique Zoccoletto, chief human capital officer, Lectra.
