Start Your Own Business

On the Level 4 Retail with Marketing Diploma, you'll learn all about retail operations and store managers while exploring the internal and external factors that influence fashion business globally. You'll also study consumer profiling and data analysis, learning how brands use this information to increase sales and profits. These skills could even help you launch or run your own business! 

Connecting You With Industry

At the FRA, we’re proud of our strong connections with the fashion and retail industry. With over 250 brand partners, students have the opportunity to connect with leading brands through Careers Fairs, masterclasses, live projects and industry talks.

Brands such as ASOS, Dr Martens, Marks & Spencer, The White Company, Oliver Bonas, Stella McCartney, Sweaty Betty, John Lewis, H&M, Skinnydip London and Harrods regularly work with our students.

Our Careers Fair brings these brands directly to campus, giving students the chance to network, showcase their skills and learn more about careers across the industry. It’s also a great opportunity to speak with hiring teams and build connections that can lead to work experience, internships and job opportunities.

Continuing With a Degree

Many of our Level 4 students choose to continue their studies with us at undergraduate level. You could progress onto a degree such as BA (Hons) Marketing & Communication for Fashion, where you can specialise further in marketing.

This degree will help you develop the technical and creative fashion marketing campaigns. 

If you love the idea of creating engaging social media content, working on campaigns for your favourite brands or building a career in communications and PR, this could be your perfect next step to boost your skills further.
