Placement Learning Agreement

My first deadline this year is fast approaching already - to write a learning agreement for the placement unit.
Writing the learning agreement has given me time to seriously consider the aims and objectives I hope to achieve during my placement.

1. I aim to learn a great deal more about and familiarise myself with luxury, contemporary fashion and the production fashion cycle.

2. Whilst working within the production department I'd like to gather a better understanding about how much creativity is involved in a job role in production. I hope to gauge if and how my enjoyment of the job is affected by the creativity or lack of it.

3. On a more personal level I plan to see how I cope with the transition of living in the countryside to living in London, a bustling city. Having lived in London throughout my childhood I am aware of the significant difference in countryside and city living and am concerned that my dislike of city life could effect my enjoyment of the placement and perhaps a future job. This placement is a good opportunity to see how I adapt to living in London and to consider how it may affect my future decisions.
