What are the human skills that one can cultivate through training in gemmology?
Gemmology is not just about being constricted in a four-walled laboratory. Professionals are increasingly interacting with prospective customers. A significant part of gemmological training focuses on inter-personal relationships and how to address queries. One should also have a sharp eye for detail and a strong sense of discernment while grading the stones. Gemmology training also evokes a sense of responsibility in the student as s/he enters a high-value, high-risk business.
