SLEM-Waalwijk

SLEM is an international innovation and education center for footwear based in Waalwijk, The Netherlands

Educating Change Makers

As of September 2014 SLEM offers a unique master class for those who want to achieve meaningful change in the footwear industry, either in terms of business, design and/or technology. In the course of nine months expert teachers and mentors from around the world - both from inside and outside the footwear business - will help you develop future vision and translate that into an innovative, profitable and sustainable concept.

After this course you can either continue to grow the company you created, or help other companies develop their future plans, working as an international footwear forecaster, designer or consultant within the SLEM talent pool.

The Master Class for Footwear Innovators is meant for people that have a passion for footwear, are highly motivated to better themselves and their environment, with a creative entrepreneurial spirit, a great curiosity for the future and a willingness to learn, work and travel in multi-cultural and multi-disciplinary teams. However, this is a post graduate level, advanced course, so we do recommend that you either have relevant work experience or hold at least a bachelor degree in design or business related studies.
