Parsons x Teen Vogue | Certificate in Fashion Industry Essentials Rating and Overview


IT'S OFFICIAL! I have finished the Parsons x Teen Vogue Fashion Industry Essentials Certificate. I am very sad that it is over but, happy that I have an official Parsons certificate to use in the future and put on my resume. If you want to learn anything about fashion, Parsons is the place to do it.

I give the program 4.9/5 stars overall.

I was challenged by this certificate in the design course. However, it wasn't a bad thing to try something new and be taken out of your comfort zone. For the first time ever I attempted to make an apparel item, it wasn't the best but, I tried. I now know what goes into designing clothing and the time it takes to get the item just right.

My first favourite course was Visual Style. Patrick Michael Hughes has to be my favourite instructor. I would absolutely take another class at Parsons if he was teaching.

My second favourite course was Fashion Media. I loved that all of the instructors were Teen Vogue employees. It's great that individuals with current industry experience are teaching. It was amazing to get all of their perspectives on the industry and an insight into their jobs.

I enjoyed the Fashion Marketing course as I currently work in one part of it already, Retail Marketing. The course was more familiar to me than the others. However, I did learn about fashion PR which was exciting.

Overall, I would say if you want to take this certificate program, TAKE IT! It was an amazing experience and wasn't expensive at all (they even have payment plans). It doesn't matter where you are in the world you can take this course and I feel that is amazing since I am from Canada and we are forgotten about all the time.

Parsons x Teen Vogue | Course 5 Developing Fashion Marketing and PR Skills


I just finished the last course in the certificate and I'm sad to say that I have finished the online program. This course took the longest for me to complete as I had to make a portfolio and I wanted to take my time making it the best for review.

My favourite part of this course was using my creative skills to make my portfolio. The part I was most nervous about was the video pitch assignment. But, after coming up with my pitch and recording it, I feel proud. I think it was a good thing for Parsons and Teen Vogue to make that an assignment, to get some people out of their comfort zone. The next post will be my overview and rating of the whole program. Stay tuned! 

xoxo,
Lisa-Marie
