"I had never touched jewelry before taking classes at Revere. My new boss sent me to Revere because it is the best jewelry school in the country. The JTI was fast paced so I could absorb as much as possible and get ready to go to work right away. I love my job as a bench jeweler."

The Jewelers of America Bench Jeweler Certification is a national certification exam. The exam is optional, but recommended for those who seek employment in the jewelry industry after graduation. It tests your ability to repair jewelry, set stones, and perform basic fabrication techniques. The exam is offered at the Revere Academy.
The Revere Academy participated in the development of these tests and is an authorized JA test site. Our Diploma Programs are intended to provide the training needed to prepare candidates for testing at the first two levels. The Jewelry Technician Diploma Program leads beginners through a training curriculum in preparation for the first level of testing–JA Certified Bench Jeweler Technician. The Graduate Jeweler Diploma Program prepares students for the second level, JA Certified Bench Jeweler.
