Collaborative Development Programs
 Cardonald College, Glasgow and ARCH are engaged in creating a collaborative course module. As part of this collaboration the staff is engaged in exchanging course structure details for courses revolving around creating a skirt pattern, the second project will focus on surface ornamentation. At the centre of this collaboration is the e-learning where inputs will be exchanged through video calling and other means such as the use of facebook. Students will be guided and mentored by faculties from both the institutes. Since the course being evolved will be used by faculties at both the institutions the products too will ultimately be displayed in the collaborating organizations.
The intended Outcomes of this project are
- Expanded skills and knowledge for students and teachers
- Enhanced citizenship skills and cultural understanding
- New teaching materials developed for use in curriculum
- Improved potential for trade and employment by those taking part

As part of the third phase of this exchange program two more students Linn and Louise from Textila Gymnasiet came to Arch Academy in November, 2011 to study about Traditional Indian Surface Design Techniques.
