"I wanted a professional jewelery program with total immersion in order to learn as much as possible. The Academy's 8 week Jewelry Technician Intensive program was just right. Through demos, hands-on projects and practice, I learned all the essential bench skills and much more, and I built my confidence as well. I just took the JA certification exam and felt confident about my performance during the test. Coming here was definitely the right decision."
