Cyber
Classes:
Cyber Classes are another innovative opportunity for designers to teach
and promote their designs. Needle Artworks offers this communication tool
to increase profits and reduce stress by:
| · |
Reaching
a world-wide audience, |
| · |
Reducing
or eliminating mailing headaches, |
| · |
Eliminating
guild, regional, and national guidelines and timetables, |
| · |
Eliminating
kitting (if desired) while adding stay-at-home convenience for you
and the students. |
You
determine: the format of the Cyber Class, the duration of the class, the
price, the maximum/minimum number of students, the number of lessons,
and whether to offer to critique students completed pieces.
