 SSEF Basic Gemmologist Certificate
Since 2002, the SSEF Swiss Gemmological Institute has formed numerous
international students with its well reputed SSEF Basic Training Course
program. These students received the SSEF Basic Gemmologist Certificate
after a successful final theoretical and practical exam following the intensive
course program given by the SSEF experts. The world-wide
renowned SSEF Swiss Gemmological Institute issues this diploma
only to candidates, who have fulfilled SSEF standards of gemmological
knowledge and testing. By passing the exam, the candidates have
revealed a basic knowledge in gemmology accompanied by practical
skills in gemstone testing for the profit of their future gemstone
business. According to Dr. M.S. Krzemnicki, the SSEF Director,
the students not only upgraded their understanding
on critical gemmological issues, they were also contributing to
a very exciting course program in which all participants came
together in discussions, learning from each other by connecting
their knowledge from different levels of the gem trade. The Swiss
Gemmological Institute SSEF would like to congratulate the successful
candidates for their SSEF Basic Gemmologist Certificate. Future
course participants are encouraged to follow the SSEF education
program in gemmology and to join the growing number of SSEF Basic
