You may leave them in the premises but please note that MJS will not be held responsible for any lost or stolen tools.
What if I need more hours than the ones stated in your curriculum to complete the course?
It’s absolutely fine. The hours we have suggested give the student an idea of approximate time for completion. Some students may take more time to complete the course, others less. No extra fee will be charged.
What is your Schedule like?
The student has 3 slots available to choose from. Minimum requirement is 3 hours per day for 3 days a week. Please look at our class hour section. No less than 9 hours a week are permitted.
What are classes like?
Classes are personalized. You will receive theoretical, practical and demonstrative teaching.
What is the difference between Diploma and Non Diploma courses?
Diploma courses are developed for students that want to be future jewelers. These offer a very high level of competency with practical and written tests. A diploma is awarded upon completion. Our Non Diploma courses are meant strictly for personal and enjoyment purposes. The student will receive a Certificate of Participation upon completion of the course.
Do graduates find jobs?
Yes. The students have a high placement rate. We have students working for jewelry retailers and manufacturers. Others have opened their own business!
I’m not a U.S. citizen. Do you provide Student Visas?
