I am overwhelmed with the high level of competency and the sense of community provided by NAJA. From the onset, my studies have been supported and I have been guided and nurtured on my pathway towards becoming a well-rounded, professional appraiser. Upon completion of the course, not only did I feel prepared to begin work, but I felt confident that I had the knowledge, the ethics, and the skills necessary to succeed. Thank you to the entire team.

As a dedicated Member of the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers (NAJA), I am privileged to be a part of a collective of professionals that epitomizes the essence of a supportive community. Within this esteemed Association, we engage in a mutual exchange of knowledge and experiences, fostering an environment where listening and sharing are not just encouraged, but celebrated. Our commitment to mentorship and continuous learning propels us toward excellence, ensuring each member has the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. This ethos of encouragement and collaboration underpins our journey to be paramount in our field.

I know NAJA is a GREAT organization and there is not a week that goes by that I do not mention the benefits of the organization to another jeweler or gemologist. I personally feel that the more members sharing knowledge will help the jewelry and appraisal community, it has helped me. Before I felt like a small boat in a big ocean, now I feel like part of a Navy Fleet.

I think NAJA is such a great organization run by great people and am glad I joined; it was a great move for me professionally. Being a part of NAJA really made me want to “step up my game.”

The NAJA Appraisal Studies Course is very thorough. I have been a member since 1995. Gail Brett Levine and her team are doing everything they can to support, educate and empower fine jewelry appraisers. As a GIA GG and someone interested in the jewelry appraisal field, the NAJA has what you are looking for. The J in the acronym says it all... JEWELRY.
