Over the course of a week, craftsmen from Van Cleef & Arpels’ Paris and Lyon workshops will share and discuss about their experience, their everyday life and their passion with groups of students. They will try their hand at several specialized gestures such as setting, polishing or jewelry work.

Several jewelry schools will present to students the different trainings dedicated to these traditional savoir-faire. Representatives of Van Cleef & Arpels's associated workshops will also share their experience and the potential openings within companies.

The Parcours Métiers (Professional Pathways) will be open to the general public, by reservation, on the weekends of November 26 - 27 and December 3 - 4. All will attend craftsmen’s interactive demonstrations of savoir-faire. Visitors will also meet with jewelery schools and Human Resources team from Van Cleef & Arpels who will present the different training programs dedicated to these traditional crafts.

As part of this initiative, L’École, School of Jewelry Arts, set at place Vendôme in Paris, moved to Lyon to propose a program composed of more than 20 lectures in gemology, conferences, or workshops towards adults or youngsters. Van Cleef & Arpels thereby proposed to discover the jewelry crafts and bringing them to the greatest number.

All the courses in the programm will be offered at 15€ each, for students upon the presentation of a valid scholar card.
