You helped us make a successful transition of our registration from MOE to the Singapore Council for Private Education
What do you have to look forward to in 2012
Re-structured diploma qualifications In response to feedback from our students, our industry partners and surveys of the general public, we have been reviewing the JDMIS diploma qualifications and are ready to announce some important changes. When you obtain a diploma from the JDMIS in 2012, it will be shorter, more targeted, more relevant and more useful! A full announcement is scheduled for early 2012 - but until then, don't worry if you are an existing diploma holder or have been working towards one of our current Diplomas. These comprehensive curricula will remain for those that appreciate the benefits of these qualifications, and existing JDMIS students will have a priority/fast-track transition plan into the new system!
More review sessions and new advanced courses As the number of graduates of JDMIS programmes grow, many of you are finding you have done all there is to do from our standard curriculum. So What's next? You responded so positively to our design reviews last month that we will be arranging review sessions for many more of our classes - together with new, advanced programmes in design, thread & wire fabrication, metal clay fabrication and metalsmithing.
More industry talks, more international speakers Every industry speaker we had in 2011 presented to a full-house! In 2012 we will be inviting more experts, and from further afield! And with our new event registration system you can confirm your participation with just one click from your computer or mobile phone! Stay tuned...
Revised pricing for all courses JDMIS has kept its prices fixed since 2008! Since then, we have increased in size by a factor of 3, made sweeping improvements to each and every one of our courses, and even absorbed an increase of over 200% in the market price of silver! With the revised curricula we are taking the opportunity to revise our pricing too. Yes, prices will go up, but courses will maintain their excellent value and we will be able to ensure you continue to receive the best possible training in Asia every time you visit JDMIS. On a positive note, based on your feedback, we will be incorporating the GST into our published prices; no more having to pull our your calculator to work out the price after GST!
Thank your for your support of the JDMIS over the last 4 years and we look forward to growing with you in the coming years!

Established Professional Certification JDMIS certificates are awarded credit for their relevant Diploma counterpart modules after project evaluation and testing.
