What Makes KLC the Industry Leader?

At KLC, we make a special effort to be forward-thinking and proactive. We train the designers of the future and therefore take pains to properly immerse ourselves in the industry we support.

We have an annual exhibition of graduates’ work, coupled with our award ceremony which is sponsored by a range of some of the most prestigious companies within the industry.

KLC regularly appears at Exhibitions such as the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and Decorex International. We also develop tailor-made company training days, as well as putting together events exclusively for some of the leading home interest magazines. Overseas links are also important to the school and we are proud to be affiliated with Machida Academy in Japan and Details School in Russia and have working links with RMIT in Australia and Western Carolina University in the USA.

We continue to look to the future with our in-house IT team developing additional learning resources and student support. KLC uses Adobe Connect, which is a secure flexible web communication system that allows on-line training, web conferencing and online collaboration, and allows students to have an interactive experience with both the tutor and other students in the classroom.

KLC Environmental Policy
KLC aims to reduce the effect on the environment of its day to day operations, and reviews progress towards this goal on a regular basis. A reduction in environmental impact is achieved by encouraging environmentally friendly practices amongst both the staff and the students, with a particular emphasis in our studios on the concept of “reduce, re-use and re-cycle” with regard to use of materials.
