The Faculty of Gem at Burapha University, Chanthaburi Campus, organized a short-term training program to develop skills and knowledge in gem and jewelry for students in grades 4-6 at SRIRATRADNUKHROH School in Ban Nongkla, Tungbenja Subdistrict, Tha Mai District, Chanthaburi Province on November 2, 2566. The aim is to provide fundamental knowledge in gem and jewelry, with a focus on promoting and transferring knowledge related to gemstone trading in the market, evaluating the quality of gemstones, designing jewelry using computer programs, and the entire jewelry production process, from shaping the mold to decoration, to create high-quality and intricate pieces.

It also aims to ignite academic and industrial interest in the field of gem and jewelry in Chanthaburi Province. This initiative is expected to have a lasting and impactful effect on the sustainable development of the local community and economy. This initiative serves as a platform for nurturing and enhancing the capabilities of students in the gem and jewelry sector, preparing them to evolve into proficient professionals and entrepreneurs within the gem and jewelry industry in the years to come.
