Jewelry Design and Repair Diploma

You know the old saying, "A diamond lasts forever." Well this is true, but only with a good Jewelry Design and Repair technician. You can join Penn Foster Career School and you will be steps away from helping people repair and restore their jewelry. Jewelry such as wedding rings and heirloom watches are near and dear to their owners’ hearts. The Jewelry Design and Repair program can teach you to keep these pieces looking like new.

All your learning takes place in your home, on your time, and at your pace. You will learn how to conduct common repairs with tools used by jewelers. You will learn about colored gemstones, diamonds, and jewelry design and retailing. You specifically study the history of jewelry and metals. Your studies allow you to develop proficiency in soldering, casting, and ring sizing. Penn Foster even includes industry-standard tools as part of the program.

The great news for you is that "employment opportunities should be excellent. Many employers have difficulty finding and retaining jewelers with the right skills and the necessary knowledge*." Penn Foster provides you the training that can make you just as valuable as an employee as the diamond rings you repair. Get ready for a brilliant, shining career!
