After Paris and Lyon, Claude VIVIER LE GOT, founding president of the EAC Group, and Gérard FLAMME, director of professional training at ING, announced the opening, from February 2011, of a Gemmologist – Jewelry Trade training, in the city center of Nice (15/17 rue de la Liberté). As part of a partnership with ISCAE, a business school inaugurated in January 2010, the National Institute of Gemmology will set up and offer Gemmologist and Jewelry Trade training programs.
Initial training and professional training
ING welcomes students wishing to acquire a high-level certified and recognized specialization in the field of gemmology, stones, and luxury, as well as professionals for professional and specialized training.
Already training some 400 trainees per year, ING is recognized for the quality of its teachings and its expertise meeting the demanding criteria of French jewelry. Thus, the largest jewelry houses such as Mauboussin, Cartier, Van Cleef, Gucci, Vuitton, and many other professionals such as Didier Guérin, Histoire d’Or, Crédit Municipal have called upon ING to train their staff.
Over its 48 years of existence, ING has trained several thousand gemmologists and was rewarded with the State-certified Gemmologist title, level 3, in 2010.
Also, in February 2011, ING is opening training aimed at young students.
Admission will be direct for those holding a level 4 (baccalaureate) and via application and interview, as well as a motivation interview for those with a level 5 (CAP, BEP, etc.).
In the first two years, students prepare for the State-certified Gemmologist Title. In the third year, they specialize in the Bachelor of Luxury Goods Trading, jewelry option.
The educational content: primarily hands-on work in small groups of up to 14 people.
From the history of jewelry to the scientific concepts of gemmology, future graduates will undertake practical gemmology courses as well as more specialized modules on diamonds, pearls, and jewelry creation. Assisted by the best specialist experts during their training, ING graduates benefit from genuine professional know-how of very high added value.
Throughout the year, students will be able to apply their knowledge through internships in businesses in the luxury sector.
The educational team will be coordinated by a permanent professor from ING Paris, based in Nice, who will rely on the support of many gemmologists trained by ING and based in the Azurean region.
The first year (February 1, 2011, to July) will last 6 months, with intensive courses.
The second year will run from September 2011 to July, alternating.
In September 2011, the third year of specialization, Bachelor in Luxury Goods Trading, jewelry option, will open and be accessible to students with an equivalency.
ING has a long tradition of continuous professional training (80% of its activity). Thus, alongside the initial training, from February, there will be gemmology internships as part of professional training, resulting in State-recognized diplomas. These internships are intended for both professionals wishing to improve their knowledge of certain stones and amateurs interested in gemmology.
Students will benefit from a collection specially put together for Nice of 6,000 stones and laboratories equipped with the latest generation equipment: microscopes, polariscopes, as well as all the stone expertise equipment (diamond testers).
ING and ISCAE have established a partnership to develop cooperation in the fields of Education and Research in Communication, Commerce, Gemmology, and Luxury. Its objectives are:
– Establishment of the Luxury Goods Commerce Bachelor’s training program, which will be common to both organizations.
– Development of joint actions such as conferences, seminars, team research, publications;
– Exchange of information and documentation that can assist instructors and learners
– Implementation of initial training programs (preparation for the certified level 3 title) and professional training (competency certificates of said title) and cycles for amateurs of the National Institute of Gemmology in Nice
The National Institute of Gemmology, by its energy, brings new life to gemmology in France and internationally to maintain a high level of skills and aims to sustainably establish itself in the Azurean landscape.

The profession of GEMMOLOGIST
The core of a Gemmologist’s profession consists of determining the origin and authenticity of gemstones (diamond, ruby, emerald, sapphire, etc.), pearls (fine or cultured), and so-called decorative stones (topaz, quartz, citrine, tourmaline, etc.) or organic materials (coral, mother-of-pearl, shell, etc.) to enable their identification and estimate their market value.
The Gemmologist must be able to identify existing imitations of these stones and metals using different laboratory tests.
They must also be able to identify and recognize different metals and precious metals (white gold, silver, yellow gold, copper, etc.) from alloys (platinum, vermeil, plated, steel, etc.) as well as different control, master, or hallmark stamps.
The skills of a Gemmologist
The Gemmologist is a State-certified professional at level 3
They combine technical and scientific skills which they offer to other professionals such as experts, traders, artisans, jewelers, manufacturers, major houses on Place Vendôme, or even insurance companies, large retailers, auctioneers, municipal credit services, and customs services. They can also be a consultant for an architect, designer, creator, or stylist.
