Background/Objectives: Using past research and a survey, this study evaluated employee satisfaction to understand the practical application and appropriateness of the National Competency Standards (NCS) curriculum and propose an effective education plan to improve the curriculum content. Methods: A curriculum satisfaction survey was conducted From February to October 2022 on 338 workers, after which the data were evaluated using frequency analyses and descriptive statistics. Results: It was found that most education participants were engaged in the textile and clothing industries and others were associated with fiber analysis or textile-related industries. Workers involved in design, trade, sales, customer counseling, process management, quality control, and R&D had participated in the training for which knowledge of clothing materials and manufacturing processes was needed. Satisfaction with the four curricula was generally high, with the newly added subjects showing a high satisfaction rate of 4.5 points or more. Therefore, identifying textile fashion industry company requirements in NCS curricula could be of practical assistance to both companies and employees. Conclusion/Implications: This study provides information on the education needs of workers and highlights to need to promote technological development links. Linking curricula with industry job systems based on NCS could improve practical job skills, strengthen employee and management expertise, and help better develop the domestic fashion industry.
