HRDAntwerp is coming to Singapore once again at the end of this month. They would be holding their Certified Diamond Grader Program and a workshop on Diamond Treatments & Fancy Coloured Diamonds! I personally went for the courses last year and I learnt alot from it.

I was trained under the GIA diamond grading system and learning the HRDAntwerp way of grading broaden my perspective on how I grade diamonds. The HRDAntwerp method is very systematic and easy to understand. The trainer, Mr Wouter Vansteelant was very clear and experienced.

I also attended the 2 day workshop on diamond treatments & fancy coloured diamonds! It was a great eye opener! I really liked the section on Fancy Coloured Diamonds! This was one of the reasons why I am dealing with Fancy Coloured Diamonds now.

This year, Far East Gemological Institute has managed to bring HRDAntwerp back to Singapore! Cost of the diploma course is SGD$3200 and the workshop is only SGD$1000.

I’m making a mention of this course as it benefited me tremendously.
