Press Release: The National Association of Jewelry Appraisers (NAJA) announces the winners of the 2014 Howard Rubin Educational Foundation (HREF) Scholarship to attend the World of Gems Conference IV scheduled for September 20 to 21, 2014 in Rosemont, Illinois. Heidi Harders, graduate gemologist from Chicago, Illinois and Kathleen Marino, graduate gemologist of Rochester, Minnesota are the 2014 winners of the first annual scholarship.
Harders is accomplished appraiser and member of NAJA since 1996 and shares her thought that "the World of Gems Conference goes above and beyond." Marino is a novice appraiser and joined NAJA in 2013 and feels that "continual education is integral to growing as a gemologist and an appraiser."
The HREF Scholarship is awarded to only NAJA members -- one new appraiser and one experienced appraiser -- for continuing education, other than NAJA conferences, relating to gem and jewelry personal property appraising.
The NAJA is the largest membership association specializing exclusively in gem and jewelry appraising and related appraisal issues. It offers education and networking opportunities with knowledgeable appraisal professionals.
