Director - Trainer
Edgardo ( Eddie ) Zargon
The school director and main trainer is Edgardo Zargon, an experienced jewelry designer who was the first jeweler to receive the highest certification available in the United States, becoming the first Certified Master Jeweler in the State of Florida.
This certification was awarded by “Jewelers of America” after a thorough testing of knowledge and skills. Jewelers of America is the largest jeweler’s organization representing more than 11,000 jewelry stores in the United States.
Mr. Edgardo (Eddie) Zargon has custom made jewelry and manufactured. He has also owned and operated a chain of jewelry stores in the retail field as well as a wholesale import-export company in the jewelry industry.
Facing a need for help of seasoned professionals, he started training some of his own employees utilizing diverse techniques that combined his knowledge with the techniques and technology offered in the USA transferred to him by his European Master trainers . He soon realized that he could accomplish a much faster and complete training by schooling his employees using hands on techniques against the conventional apprenticeship methods and that was how American School of Jewelry was created.
