The nature of a career in fashion design depends on the environment in which the graduate is employed. Graduates who find work in large companies often specialize in a particular aspect of the business, as part of a design, production or marketing team; employees of a small company may find themselves fulfilling all of these roles in one way or another. Some fashion designers choose to go into the film, theatre and television industry, while others set up their own businesses, working on a variety of projects. Others may go on to pursue postgraduate work in education, history, theatrical costume studies (see Theatre – Design), or the conservation and preservation of textiles for museums and historical collections. Related careers include patternmaking, grading, styling, production management, CAD Gerber operation, print design, merchandising, retail buying, and advertising. The Fashion Design Council of Canada (http://www.lorealfashionweek.ca/fdcc/fdcc.html) is “a national Canadian organization dedicated to branding fashion in Canada.”
