June 30, GIA Uncovers the Fascinating World of Diamonds in Dehradun
Institute to offer five-day diamond course in Dehradun


Diamond enthusiasts, hobbyists and connoisseurs have the exciting opportunity to learn more about the cherished diamond – including the qualities that add to its value and jewellery buying tips – from one of the world’s leading experts.
GIA (Gemological Institute of America), a nonprofit institute considered the world leader in gem and jewellery education, is conducting a practical five-day programme on diamonds in Dehradun starting June 30th, 2014. Our student, Mayank Aggarwal, from Kaashvi Jewels, in Delhi says “I was from a non-jewellery background. However, after pursuing my training at GIA, my knowledge about diamonds is at par with my friends who are from the industry for many years. Earlier, where I used to see only the brightness, I now notice many more aspects of a diamond. I thank my cousin for recommending GIA, who has pursued her own training here”.
Students in GIA’s Diamond Grading Lab Class work with real diamonds and professional Gemmological tools to uncover the fascinating world inside these gems. The class teaches both technical and practical ways to observe and evaluate diamond quality, and the basics of the famous 4Cs (colour, cut, clarity and carat weight), an evaluation system created by GIA. Students also learn how the 4Cs can affect value and about the ways in which diamond treatments can affect the appearance of a stone.
Taught by experienced and qualified GIA instructors, the course is ideal for hobbyists, jewellery enthusiasts, connoisseurs, students and working professionals interested in diamonds. The programme starts June 30th,2014 in Dehradun.
