Willilam Holland School of Lapidary

Hi! I’m considering taking some repair/manufacturing courses and I
wondered if anyone knows how Willilam Holland School of
Lapidary Arts, Compufield in Alabama, and GIA compare? I also
wondered if anyone knows if there are any good schools in northeast
Ohio or Western Pennsylvania? Does anyone have any advice on beginning
repairs? Costs, tools, safety equipment, etc.?

Thanks,
Jewelcy
