CARTIER INSTITUTES
Preserving and passing down knowledge: it is this dual mission that inspired Cartier to create its own institutes, to guarantee the education of its talented employees and ensure its expertise is passed on.
The Cartier Jewellery Institute has been committed to continuing professional development and the promotion of jewellery professions since 2002. Its aim is to maintain and develop the jewellery arts through a continuous and tailor-made training programme: nearly 500 people – employees and High Jewellery customers – are welcomed there each year.
The Institute partners with specialised schools, including the Haute Ecole de la Joaillerie. This relationship takes the form of hosting trainees, training apprentices and supporting the school as the profession evolves.
Since 2019, Cartier has been the main sponsor of the Association des Maîtres d'Arts et de leurs Élèves.

Since its founding in 1993 in Switzerland, the Cartier Watchmaking Institute (IHC) has upheld watchmaking excellence by training apprentices in the crafts of horology, mechanics, microtechnology and polishing. This institution imparts unique expertise within Cartier’s manufactures. Nearly 200 apprentices have been trained, while each year, a hundred employees refine their skills through dedicated courses and hands-on programmes.
Created in 1995 by the IHC, this pioneering award supports and fosters young talents in their horological vocation. Each year, it invites watchmaking students from Switzerland, France, Germany, and Belgium to transform a movement around a given theme. The winners are recognised for both technical mastery and creative vision, celebrating innovation at the heart of watchmaking tradition.
