Skill development for craftspeople
It is with great pleasure that the "Jewelry Illustration" is available www.brynmorgen.com/catalog In 2007, the EJQ was presenting the book “Dessin de bijoux” written in French. Given the uniqueness of the book, a step by step method to teach jewelry illustration, the English speaking schools expressed their deep interest to see the book translated into English. In 2010, thanks to the editor Tim McCraith and Brynmorgen Press, it is now done! The author will be very pleased to give a MASTERCLASS, in English (15 hours from 8:30 to 17:30). It will take place on June 12 and 13 (a week-end) in beautifull Quebec City. If so desired, we will be pleased to help you find lodging near our school. The cost is 300 $ (2 lunches included). One component of the EJQ’s mission is to provide practicing craftspeople the opportunity to keep their skills up to date by taking part in skill development workshops on various aspects of their professional activities, including new techniques, new materials, new technologies, new product marketing strategies and others. Funding for these activities is provided by the Conseil des métiers d’art du Québec, which negotiates an overall allocation with Emploi-Québec. Each year, the craft school/studios submit proposals for skill development courses. Depending on the availability of the funding received, a selection of courses is announced for each session (Fall) (Winter).
SKILL DEVELOPMENT courses for CRAFTSPEOPLE Based on the course listing in the brochure Offre de cours de la session (Fall) or (Winter), interested craftspeople should complete the REGISTRATION FORM included with the course listing and return it by mail or fax to the secretary of the EJQ. Students can also register online by visiting the EJQ’s Web site. A minimum enrollment is required in order for a course to begin. A nominal participation fee must be paid by the students, however most of the tuition is covered by funding from Emploi-Québec. |
