Addressing the students, Vaishali said, “This industry needs young talent, and to ensure our industry is future-ready, we need education. The gem and jewelry industry in India is strong and has a global positioning, but we need to strive and ensure our industry grows further. GIA plays a very important role in this, and I commend the Institute’s role in ensuring skilled talent is part of the industry.”

Apoorva Deshingkar, Senior Director – Education and Market Development, GIA India, added, “We are proud of our graduating students. The GIA Comprehensive CAD/CAM for Jewelry Certificate Program is a great extension to GIA’s Jewelry Design program and can also be pursued independently.

Isha Goyal, a GIA Comprehensive CAD/CAM for Jewelry Graduate, said, “The gem and jewelry industry always intrigued me, and I am not from the industry, so I decided to enroll in an educational program to gain understanding, and GIA was the first name that came to mind when I was looking for an institute.”
