The one-day workshop is designed to provide independent jewellers with an accessible education and networking opportunity.
Each event will feature roundtable discussions on key industry issues and expert-led sessions on topics such as trends, artificial intelligence and how to leverage social media to boost sales.
The next workshop will be held on Tuesday, September 17th at the Army-Navy Club in Washington, DC.
This will be held in conjunction with JA’s annual Jewelers of America Political Action Committee Fly-In, which will be held on Wednesday, September 18th.
For members interested in making their own visit to Capitol Hill, JA will provide information on how to set up a meeting to advocate for their business and how to support JA’s efforts to speak up for jewelers.
The next and final workshop will be held in New York City on October 29th.
This will coincide with the JA New York Show, scheduled for October 27-29.
The show is not owned or operated by JA, but there will be a member pavilion at the show.
“We are committed to providing educational opportunities that not only connect our members with each other, but also give them ready-to-use tools to help improve their business, and our multi-faceted learning workshops allow us to do just that,” said David Bonaparte, JA president and CEO.
Those interested in the Washington, DC workshop can register on the JA website for $75.
Details about the New York workshop have yet to be announced.
