Course Title

*Image Management For Individuals:
A Life-Skills Course For Young Men & Women

Teach students the importance and impact of personal appearance on their lives and the achievement of their goals. Students are enthusiastic about this course and appreciate immediate application in school, job, even family situations.

Learning to use clothing and grooming aids as a resource is a novel idea to most students today. Using this resource, they find it's not hard to outclass the competition in job interviews, because no one else is really trying anymore.

Curriculum materials include twelve units that embody twelve image/wardrobe strategies. Each unit is presented with beginning level, intermediate level, and some advanced level information. High school teachers can use beginning level information as review or preview material. Demonstration clothes guarantee difference in presentation and continued student interest. (Content is technical knowledge every instructor of clothing and appearance should possess as part of educational background.)

Within each unit, beginning level information is printed on blue pages, intermediate and advanced on white pages, and includes:
• Annotated content information
• Charts
• Illustrations
• Student exercises
• Discussion questions

—Charts and exercises are presented on separate pages and serve as transparency masters.

Within each unit, supplementary material is printed on yellow pages and includes:
• Learner Objectives or Outcomes
