The job requires a blend of skills and art, apart from designing and manufacturing activities.

Product cost and budgeting:

One of the most popular classes in our module is called pricing and selling your Jewellery. In this module strategies for a pricing formula is taught which is easy to do, accounts for costs of parts, labour, and fits with the realities the jewellery designer faces, most notably, that they wear different hats — manufacturer, wholesale and retail — and each “hat” requires a different way or related costs to prices. The aim of this course is to teach different pricing techniques and methods used to teach Jewellery Products. These methods are intended to be used as guidelines and should be adjusted or modified. By the end of the course the student should be familiar pricing different types of Jewellery products, either bespoke Jewellery, mass produced Jewellery, etc.
