WHAT A YEAR IT HAS BEEN AT THE JEWELLERS ACADEMY YORKSHIRE
The demand for hands-on commercial jewellery and watchmaking training has never been stronger.
Our Yorkshire training facility has welcomed some of our highest attendee numbers to date, with the overwhelming majority of courses selling out well in advance.

COURSE UPDATE

✅ Shanks From Smelt – SOLD OUT
✅ Introduction To Soldering – SOLD OUT
✅ Claw & Re-Tipping – SOLD OUT
✅ Electroplating Gold & Rhodium – SOLD OUT
✅ General Watch Repair Part 1 (Days 1-3) – SOLD OUT
✅ Stone Setting Levels 1 & 2 – SOLD OUT

✅ NEW Manufacture Masterclass Part 2 – SOLD OUT
🔹 Stone Setting Level 3 (late July) – ONLY TWO PLACES REMAINING
🔹 Bangle, Hinge & Box Snap Manufacture (June) – ONLY TWO PLACES REMAINING

The biggest surprise of the year has undoubtedly been our NEW Bespoke Manufacture Masterclass Programme.

This traditional skills-based two-part course, delivered over two separate four-day blocks, sold out almost immediately. Combining traditional goldsmithing methods with modern manufacturing techniques, the response has exceeded all expectations.

Due to demand, we are exploring opportunities to repeat the part one of programme before Christmas and the second part again in early 2027.

A small group.
Maximum bench time.
Traditional skills.
Modern techniques.
Commercial reality.

Exactly how we believe jewellery training should be delivered.

📢 IMPORTANT COURSE UPDATES

Our NEW Stone Setting Level 4 programme and NEW General Watch Repair Part 3 (Days 7-9) are currently being rearranged as we prepare for the next major chapter in our Academy's history.

We also hope to deliver an additional General Watch Repair Part 2 programme during September and will announce dates as soon as possible.

WHY THIS PARTNERSHIP MATTERS.

Some partnerships happen because they make business sense.

Others happen because two companies share the same vision.

For months, Pepetools USA and The Jewellers Academy Yorkshire have been working together behind the scenes on what we believe could become one of the most exciting developments in professional jewellery training for many years.

Pepetools is one of America's largest and most respected jewellery tool manufacturers.

The Jewellers Academy Yorkshire has built an award-winning reputation for commercial jewellery training, repair, restoration, traditional craftsmanship and developing the next generation of skilled tradespeople.

Together, we are creating something genuinely new.

A modern, immersive, live-streamed training platform featuring over 25 cameras, purpose-built production facilities, professional tool kits, industry-approved certification and a learning experience designed to make online students feel as though they are sitting inside the workshop itself.

This is not recordings

This is not a webinar.

This is not just another online course.

It is a bold new approach to vocational training that has the potential to change how professional jewellery education is delivered across the world.

David Aizenman, Director of Pepetools USA, commented:

"We are genuinely excited about what The Jewellers Academy is building and believe this platform has the potential to transform professional jewellery training on a global scale. Pepetools would be honoured to be the tool partner that helps bring that vision to life."

Words like these from one of the industry's leading manufacturers reinforce what we have believed from the very beginning.

The future of jewellery training should be interactive.
The future should be immersive.
The future should be accessible.
The future starts on 23rd October 2026 with launch in America

Two Companies. One Vision.
Making Our Industry Stronger.
