And the author's courses of leading experts in the fashion industry allow students to master applied and instrumental methods of building fashion brands, launching projects on the Internet, building strategies in social networks, conducting fashion collaborations. Members of the Academic Council can become mentors for the best students, and, in fact, grow young specialists "for themselves". One of the main tasks of the Academic Council is to form a new business ethics of professional mentoring for the fashion industry, which is an essential part of education at the world's best universities.
