Gem-A establishes new Allied Teaching Centre in Guangzhou, China

摘要

China has long been a major focus for Gem-A's education. The first Gemmological Association Diploma Course was taught in Hong Kong by Marcia Lanyon in 1972 and in 1989 Gem-A Gemmology Diploma courses were initiated on the Chinese mainland by Professor Zhonghui Chen and Professor Weixuan Yan of the China University of Geosciences (Wuhan). Gem-A courses are now taught in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Guilin, Guangzhou, Taiwan, and Singapore. The course notes and exams are provided in both Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
