I had the pleasure to assist Maria during NYFW Fall 2017 for Zadig & Voltaire's pre-collection set-up. Maria was a great project manager to work with; very organized and easy going. Maria's project management style is all about team work and delegations. Maria builds immediate trust amongst the team and camaraderie. I will gladly work for her again in a heartbeat!

YOU WANT TO GROW YOUR CAREER
But you're stuck in the career hamster wheel:
looking on job site after job site for an opportunity, applying and then getting one of those automated rejection emails, even before having a chance to interview.
OR WORST YET.
Interviewing and feeling great about it.
Only to not hear back from the hiring manager.
Like...ever.

You’re tired of applying for backstage roles and never hearing back.
You just want the chance to experience being a part of something so incredibly important to the industry.
You don't know all of the preparation or key players that are involved with Fashion Week or any individual shows.
But you're eager to learn them so you can use that information to get the experience you need in order to apply.
You want to add new experiences to your resume that you wouldn't get by doing anything else.
You know that having Fashion Week experience on your resume would impress hiring managers and give you something different to discuss during the interview process.

FAQs
Here's what other students have asked before clicking Enroll
01
Will I have time to finish weekly lessons if I can’t do one right away?
The answer is yes! Just to reiterate what I mentioned before, this course is 100% self paced. What I mean by that is...even though the lessons drop weekly, you can do them at your own pace using the weekly Q+A sessions as guides and the community as reinforcement.
You’re never behind and you have the support of myself and of my staff as well as the FB community to get you through any questions you have during the course itself.
02
Can any major or field of study take this course or is it only for event production careers?
The purpose of this course is to teach you about Fashion Week so that you can use it to expand your experience and network by exposing yourself to the biggest event on the fashion calendar.
The people you meet and the jobs you do at Fashion Week are unique and impressive, so even if being an event producer is not what you see for yourself, this course teaches you how to use the experience you get working during Fashion Week to catapult the rest of your career, in whatever field you decide to pursue.
03
Will we get a certification at the end of the course?
Yes! You will receive a certificate at the end of this course that you can add to any professional profile, such as LinkedIn.
This shows companies and hiring managers that you’re serious about your career and you’re dedicated to learning, growing and becoming a stronger professional.
04
DO YOU OFFER A PAYMENT PLAN?
Yes, we do. You can get started today for just $471 and then 1 additional payment of $471 after 30 days.
Choose the option that works best for you, a 2-pay option or a 1 time payment option, but the entire program, including all of the bonuses are waiting for you no matter what option you choose.
Can I mark you down as a “YES!!” to start building a career that gets you closer to your goals, opens more doors for new opportunities and sets you up for a successful career?
If the answer is a solid ‘Let’s do this’, get yourself into
Backstage Fashion Week Academy and let’s get started!
