Since our inception in 1934, the American Gem Society (AGS) has been offering designations and credentials that support jewelry professionals in developing the knowledge and skills to perform their professional function in the best interest of their clients. When you work with a credentialed professional, you can rest assured that what you have purchased is represented fairly, your jewelry professional conducts business ethically, and that they are committed to their ongoing professional development.
AGS also awards the Accredited Gem Lab® (AGL) designation to retail and appraisal firms maintaining a professional gemological laboratory.
We host a schedule of gemological classes taught by GIA instructors that support the fulfillment of prerequisites towards earning a credential from the American Gem Society.
We also offer an educational portfolio that helps members stay on top of the latest developments in gemology as well as business, governmental regulations, human resources, legal, sales, and marketing.
Subject matter includes educational pieces on gemology, whether its diamonds, synthetic treatments, gemstones, origin, and so much more. A rich marketing and sales section covers the gamut from SEO to sales tips. There is an extensive business management section, plus HR, legal, and government regulations affecting the jewelry industry. AGS is where members go to learn with the Pros!
AGS’s courses and programs support you in earning professional credentials, and provide you with the knowledge and skills jewelry professionals need today.
