Goldsmithing and Jewellery Design and Production Course
The Crafts Council of Ireland’s Design and Production Courses in
Ceramics and Goldsmithing/Jewellery, established in 1990 and 1993
respectively to address the Irish craft industry’s need for high
quality technical training, have over the years evolved to become
internationally significant. Both are now two-year 88-week intensive
courses concentrating on design and production skills, and as a
result graduate industry entry and retention levels are consistently
high.
CCoI invites tenders for the service contract of Trainer to its
Goldsmithing and Jewellery Design and Production Course.
This is a two-year fixed term contract from September 2007 to July

Using CCoI’s course outline, the Contractor will further develop and
supply a dynamic training programme and training for a cohort of
trainees in the skills required for the commercial production of
high quality designed and manufactured jewellery, as per CCoI’s
training mission: to enable its graduates to pursue successful

design and craftsmanship in Ireland.
