Diamond Setting Career

Where to start

Each track runs from a first-day class you can walk into with no experience, up to work that takes years to do well. Take one class and go home, or stack them toward a diploma.

Every diamond setting course, in four tiers.

Start at Foundation, build through Basics, and specialize at  intermediate & Advanced — or skip straight to the diploma and take the full sequence as one continuous program.
