The appraisal organization dedicated exclusively to gems and jewelry presents an outstanding program to assist the professional appraiser's continuing education and an unparalleled networking experience.
Just when other organizations are canceling or cutting back on their annual meetings, NAJA's Executive Director Gail Brett Levine said, "Don't cancel that meeting - rethink it!"
