The directory

Jewellery Courses

Design tools, sketches and tweezers — jewellery education splits into families, and every family starts with a door open to beginners.

Jewellery education splits into a handful of natural families, and most
schools teach some subset of them. This directory maps the families as JDMIS
in Singapore teaches them — every entry links to the school's own pages for
syllabus detail, dates and fees.

Gemmology class — handling real stones is the fastest way to learn them

The three diplomas

Fashion Jewellery Arts
— colour, texture and fast iteration; wearable art.
Fine Jewellery Design
— drawing, precision and software; the drawing board.
Precious Metal Arts
— fire, metal and the bench; fabrication.

The diploma comparison matches each to the way
you like to work.

The certificate ladders

Each diploma is built from stackable certificate courses, and every ladder
begins with a foundation course open to absolute beginners — the
certificate families breakdown maps them,
from gemmology
to CAD.
