Learn

The Jewelers Vigilance Committee provides legal education & compliance guidance to the jewelry industry.

Our members have access to education on topics applicable to all sectors of the jewelry industry. We provide education through our webinars, sessions at industry trade shows and events around the U.S. We offer publications that can help you understand how legal issues apply to your businesses. JVC also provides up-to-the-minute information about changes to the national and local laws that apply to the jewelry industry and our team is available to answer questions about how these laws apply to your daily business practices.
