LVMH has said the training offered will initially focus on leathergoods craftsmanship and will begin in the 2017-18 academic year (October 2017). The first class, which will consist of 12 students, will receive funding from the Tuscany region, LVMH added.
The training will consist of classes at Polimoda and hands-on craftsmanship training from different LVMH Maisons.
