What students say

“The skills learnt help me in choosing my purchases. I may consider helping a relative in the jewellery business and get included in the exhibitions.”

“I will use the skills acquired to make pieces for family, friends and of course, myself! If I could get to a point of eventually selling pieces, even better!”
