    I would be very wary of paying that much money for a coorespondance
    course in jewelry making. 

    If classes are not available locally then you should look into
    purchasing some the great jewelry making videos that are available
    from instructors such as Blain Lewis, Allan Revere and Tim McCreight.
    While there is no real substitute for a hands on class in jewelry
    manufacturing. These tapes would probably give you more useful
    information for a lot less money. 

    I would also check with the art guilds in your area to see if they
    could direct you to classes in metalsmithing in your area. 

Good luck to you
Ted Curtis
