For
Gemology learners practicing stone identification
Worth noticing
Course exams mix lesson questions with identification from measured properties, with stated pass marks of 75–80%.

Field notes

The course paths specify both lesson counts and daily workloads, from eight hours in one day to 70 hours across a month. Lessons pair reference material and worked examples with drills using the learner’s own stones and instruments; the page also describes final exams based partly on identification from measured properties. A separate set of member tools is listed, including an ID Helper that takes instrument readings as inputs.
