Learn Silver Clay Online - the online metal clay academy of The PMC Studio

If you're new to working with silver clay, we recommend you 'Sign Up' to our online academy and enrol on 'Get started with Silver Clay...in 6 easy steps'.  You'll find it in the course directory listed under 'Free Courses' and there's absolutely no strings attached, so a great way to find out more to see if silver clay is for you.  We also recommend this course if you've been working with metal clay for a while too - you've really nothing to lose by completing it, and in our experience there's always something new to learn.

After that, we recommend our Metal Clay Beginners Bootcamp, which is designed to help you master all the essential skills needed and build handling confidence.  After that, the choice is yours. 

We have free challenges to keep you making and to help you practise your skills, whilst the Silver Clay Certification Fast-track helps you build a solid foundation of skills, knowledge and understanding, opening up many more design possibilities for you.  We also offer our Learn Silver Clay Online Membership, which provides ongoing support, encouragement and advice, whilst continuing to add to what you have previously learned.

There's no right or wrong way to progress your metal clay skills - it's whatever works best for you, so go ahead and mix and match what we have to offer to create your ideal learning programme.

Each course has a programme of work, accompanied by a series of video's and downloads, which are accessed here in Thinkific, our learning management system.  It helps you work through the course, step-by-step, download notes, and repeat lessons if needed.  You don’t have to be here at a specific time, you just pop in and out when YOU can.  So you go at your own pace.  And all our courses come with a lifetime access guarantee, so do the course as many times as you like and benefit from updates as they are published - all for one enrolment fee.  

We also have a Facebook page for general information and sharing - click here to follow us.  In addition, some courses have a dedicated Facebook group for additional support, which you'll be invited to join when you enrol on the course.  Here you can ask the tutor specific questions, connect with a community of people doing the same work as you and build friendships.  We do live demonstrations here too, great for any tricky areas where you need some additional support, and they are always available in the group so that you can look at them again and again, at any time.

Finally, for some courses we hold regular clinics and informal meetings via Zoom.  These help us all keep in touch and enable you to ask questions and share experiences.  Whilst these sessions are held at a specified time and we recommend students join in person, we understand this isn't always possible so they are recorded and the video loaded into the Facebook group so that you can view it there if you miss it.
