One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Introduction to hides and skins

The introductory study of hides and skins covers what they are, why they are valuable, how they are classified, and the basic processes that convert raw animal skins into usable products. Mastering these concepts is essential for the exam because they form the foundation for all subsequent topics on skin diseases, defects, and processing techniques.
