Mapping multilingual patternmaker role names and competency terms when writing job briefs, comparing training language, or searching European labor information
What the source establishes.
The European Commission's ESCO service publishes released occupation 7532.7, wearing apparel patternmaker, with preferred labels in 28 languages. Its profile describes interpreting design sketches, cutting patterns, meeting customer requirements, and producing samples, prototypes, and size series. The API links 21 essential skills or knowledge areas, including creating and grading garment patterns, standard sizing systems, apparel manufacturing technology, CAD, pattern-cutting software, alterations, technical drawings, fabric distinction, and apparel inspection, plus five optional areas including 3D body scanners and scan analysis.
The linked record system is maintained by the organization responsible for the certificates, approvals, or program records it exposes.
What this record does not prove.
ESCO is a multilingual classification and terminology source, not a practitioner directory, professional license, regulated-status determination, qualification, competence assessment, provider approval, hiring recommendation, or evidence of individual experience. A linked skill does not establish proficiency, scope, availability, price, or project fit. Confirm the current ESCO version, local occupation and regulation context, role responsibilities, portfolio, references, systems, deliverables, rights, and acceptance evidence independently.
A reachable official source can verify identity, stated scope, and access. It cannot silently become an audit of workmanship, delivery, labor conditions, or suitability for your project.
