The Color Association is the world's oldest and most established color forecasting center. We are dedicated to tracking, monitoring and understanding trends and developments in the fashion, consumer goods, home, electronics and other industries to forecast and validate the colors that consumers will be looking for.

 

OUR CAPABILITIES

With the Color Association's 94 years of leadership in the field of color, access to first-in-class thought leaders and top practitioners from the design and business world, we are equipped to deliver highly tailored, customized programs for our company clients — at our New York City learning center or at the location of your choice worldwide. 


OUR METHODOLOGY

Our approach to teaching color professionals and executives is highly interactive. Participants will learn new research-based frameworks in an environment grounded in group plenary discussion and facilitated group work. Casework and simulations will serve as complements to relevant courses. Practitioners who establish and execute best practices in the color world are integrated into our programs to provide an added real-world perspective.


Refresh your knowledge of basic color concepts, identify contextual factors that influence color design and strategy decisions, and acquire practical tools to apply color forecasting and trend information.  

While each module can be attended individually, it is recommended that you enroll in the full program and enjoy the opportunity to develop a systematic and integrated color knowledge base.  


WHO SHOULD ATTEND

While we look to design education programs for a wide audience, our courses are well suited to industry professionals, designers, and color consultants looking for a refresher program, marketing and R&D professionals who use color in their business and need to better understand how to leverage color in their development efforts and strategies, and design students interested in enhancing their color knowledge.
