HI! My name is Sandi, and I'm expecting that the last 15 years of poor health is coming to an end. I've always been interested in making jewelry, and even have most of the equipment I need. I now have a chance to have some training in order to rehabilitate myself. ***yeah**** I'm really confused by the different schools. Some have 5 day courses, some take 15 months. I could go to Harrisburg Community college and take a year diplomia program for entry level work..... but I really want to be better trained than that. I want to be able to repair, and set stones. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Sandi; -
