    I notice Trevor is in Australia. Maybe Australia is like Europe, but
    here in the USA, apprenticeship programs are a thing of the past, few
    and far between. Don't mean to differ sir, but if you haven't seen
    what a 12 week course can do, then you can't compare. 

    I went through a 12 year apprenticeship program. Never learned how
    to do 100% of what's taught in Blaine's class. Anyone graduating from
    the class can do WHATEVER is in a typical repair box and do it well
    and fast. The jeweler should be able to make $25,000-$30,000 first
    year out. 

    Compare that to the first 3 years of apprenticeship, less knowledge
    and 25% less pay. And you don't break or melt your employers goods,
    either.
