How do the Gem-A courses and qualifications differ from those of other gemmology organizations?
Gem-A courses and qualifications are both high-level and officially accredited in the UK – Gem-A is an awarding body in its own right. This is one reason why our qualifications are so highly regarded worldwide. All of our courses emphasize the great importance of rapid, self-reliant observational and practical ability, using a thorough knowledge and understanding of gemmological principles. Gem-A courses also foster the ability to choose appropriate testing methods based on intelligent observation for practical decision making. The theory part of Diploma courses help you to gain a deeper understanding of your decision-making processes in practical gemmology.
