DIPLOMA PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Specially designed for sales professionals, GIA's Accredited Jewelry Professional (A.J.P. Intensive) 5 day diploma
program focuses exclusively on essential product knowledge and proven sales techniques. You learn everything you
need to sell more diamonds, more colored stones, and more jewelry right away. There are no technical grading or
identification lessons, just "real world" product knowledge you need to close sales. Become fluent in the language
of jewelry, and develop the confidence to stand in front of a customer, provide accurate product information of
jewelry, and close the sale.
By completing it in a GIA classroom you will touch on basic grading skills and also have the change to use some of
the basic gemological instruments including, tweezers, gem cloth and gem cards used in the presentation of loose
gems. You will also have the chance to observe some of the so called ‘Phenomenal Gems’, such as opal, star ruby,
star sapphire and alexandrite etc.
When you earn an Accredited Jewelry Professional diploma, you enter the marketplace with practical and relevant
skills - plus all the trust and credibility conferred by an influential GIA designation at the end of your name. |
