| Know before using | This is one paid, in-person Nairobi training institution, not a free tutorial library, provider directory, continental curriculum, independent course review, guarantee of admission, or assessment of teaching quality, accessibility, equipment, safety, qualification recognition, graduate outcomes, or project fit. Published fees, intakes, prerequisites, course availability, attachment requirements, and awards can change and some page labels are inconsistent. Confirm the exact course, current intake, total cost, entry documents, schedule, language, facilities, accessibility, safety controls, assessment, and award directly with NITA before relying on the page or travelling. | Patternmaking knowledge, controlled measurement files, production conventions, and sewn fit testing are still required. The software does not validate body measurements, ease, balance, grading rules, fabric behavior, construction, or product fit. The project currently labels its user wiki manual as needing updates, so confirm current commands and file behavior against the installed release and active support channels. | An orientation rather than a completed product record; it does not supply a universal format, licensed standard content, measurements, tolerances, construction settings, labels, approvals, compliance conclusion, or product-release authority. |

| What the source establishes | Kenya's National Industrial Training Authority identifies N-TTI as its Nairobi textile-industry training centre. The checked first-party page lists January, May, and September intakes; self-sponsored and industry-sponsored modes; named courses and durations across spinning, hand-loom and machine weaving, tie-dye and batik, screen printing, fabric processing, dressmaking, tailoring, knitting, embroidery, machine operation and maintenance, and textile testing; entry conditions; a term fee table; and direct telephone contacts. NITA's industrial-training overview separately identifies N-TTI among its public training centres and links visitors to admissions, intake, and facility information. | The maintained Seamly2D repository identifies the application as GPLv3+ open-source patternmaking software for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It reads multi-size measurement files for standardized sizes and individual measurement files for custom-fit work, publishes downloadable builds and releases, and links an active website and user forum. | The guide cites current ISO sources for documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam boundaries plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it explicitly separates those authorities from product-specific technical and market decisions. |
