National Association of Jewelry Appraisers Offering Scholarship

(IDEX Online) – The National Association of Jewelry Appraisers (NAJA) said it will award an ACE© It Appraisal Conference Scholarship to a deserving gemology student.

NAJA is inviting GIA, FGA, FGAA, FGG, FCGmA, RGA students to apply for the scholarship for the 51st Annual ACE© It Winter Educational Conference scheduled on February 3-4, 2019 in Tucson AZ.

"This opportunity gives the gemology student a firsthand experience of networking with appraisal professionals by attending the highly regarded NAJA educational experience during a time when Tucson devotes itself to gems, jewelry, and minerals. The scholarship, which covers the conference fee only, requires a resume, photo and an essay explaining the reason why the gemology student would choose to become a gems and jewelry appraiser.  NAJA believes that becoming a gems and jewelry professional appraiser is a viable career option for gemological students."

Applications can be obtained through the NAJA website, http://najaappraisers.com/ScholarshipApp2018.pdf. Deadline for submission is November 1, and the final selection by the NAJA Scholarship Advisory Board will be announced December 1.
