Hello Everyone,

I decided to register here as I start thinking about a career switch to move into gemology field.
Main reason is that
I plan to start GIA online education programme within next 12 months.
I was lucky to act a few times as a rough gem broker over last 2 years but had to use a gemologist as I have no knowledge at all, which is frustrating. I now have opportunity to buy rough stones and would like to have some independance and know how so as to supervise not only rough gems screening but also polishing and selling.
I still need to slowly phase out of my current business which should take 1 year or so. In the meantime I intend to buy some equipement and start learning on my own ; gemologyonline forum is part of that curve.
