ONLINE LICENSING

Serger I Licensing Event

You are invited to join an educational program which is beyond fabulous, well done and fun, fun, fun! You are invited to become a Martha Pullen Licensed Serger Teacher. Licensing is a unique experience that blends the love of sewing and serging with skill-building and business opportunity. Whether you want to teach or not, this online course just might be for you.
Write your awesome label here.
With over 20 projects to download and videos to support the project instructions, you can hone your serger talents and teaching skills – in the comfort of your own home. The projects range from quilting and home decorating to totes and garment construction – for baby, children and ladies. A cover stitch serger is not required to complete the required projects and techniques for Serger I. This course will prepare you to give instruction on how to thread, identify parts and settings used for general serging methods, master tips and tricks for specialty serging techniques and use additional feet. In addition, this serger licensing will include a tried-and-true curriculum of over 20 fabulous serger projects. 

You will have licensing privileges from the day you submit and pass all required projects. This means that you can either make the projects for sale without limit or, if you are teaching, you can make as many copies of the project instructions as you need for your students. Projects in each licensing collection are unique to that particular licensing, so no one else will have your projects other than the students who are licensed in the same curriculum. If you choose to teach serger classes, holding a Martha Pullen Serger License just might open teaching doors that possibly would not be available to you.

Do you have to teach if you become a Martha Pullen Licensed Teacher? No! We have many licensed teachers who never plan to teach. Some of our Martha Pullen Licensed teachers plan to teach at a later date. Of course some already have teaching jobs lined up since sewing machine dealerships are looking for serger teachers! Everyone is welcome to join our serger licensed teacher program!

I can't believe how much I learned from this course. My sergers used to just sit there, but now I know I will use them for so many things. The techniques, projects and feedback are fabulous. The instructors are the best in the business!

I have absolutely loved, loved this course. I can't thank you enough for this wonderful opportunity. It would have not been possible to attend the teaching in person. I love the format here. I was able to do each project at my own pace. I love all the teachers. They are so professional and have so much knowledge and charisma. I look forward to future online classes. I am in love with my serger and I am using it so much more and I look forward to starting on the optional projects. Thank you Martha, as usual you have served up a first class course..
