WelcomeThe British Contract Furnishing Association (BCFA) has a history
of supporting the link between education and industry seeking to
build links between the two, in the past this has been facilitated
through student clinics. We now wish to provide the widest
opportunity to bring the employers to the talent. This new
initiative seeks to provide students with the best opportunities
to develop their skills and contribute to our vibrant industry by
helping them to link up with potential employers at their end
of year exhibitions. Manufacturers and design practises will
find this a useful guide to access that talent, the ‘BCFA Guide
to Fresh Design’ will help bridge the gap between education
and employment, giving employers the information they need
to access to recent graduates who will be presenting their final
pieces after 3 years of study.
