    Hello, I just wanted to add a positive story to the discussion of
    program closures. 

    The full time jewellery programs at George Brown College in Toronto
    are healthy with good enrollment and a renewed curriculum. 

    We offer a one year certificate and a two year diploma focusing on
    technical goldsmithing skill development, a one year certificate in
    gemmology, and a three year jewellery diploma with an emphasis on
    both creative and goldsmithing skill development. 

    In the last two years we have introduced a number of new courses,
    including CADCAM for jewellery (where there has been a significant
    investment in our full time program area). 

    We are excited about the growth of our programs, the integration of
    new technologies, and our continued mandate to teach traditional
    goldsmithing skills. 

Cheers,
Martha
