As part of George Brown College’s ongoing efforts to deliver industry-leading, applied education, the School of Fashion and Jewellery Studies is pleased to announce that students in the one-year Gemmology program will be made available to help out employers during this academic year.
The program:
With students being asked to volunteer a minimum of 8 hours during the year, we would appreciate your participation in providing volunteer opportunities with your event/company. All we ask is that you fill out a brief evaluation of the student’s performance once their hours are complete.

With the introduction of this new applied learning opportunity, we hope to continue this tradition of win-win scenarios for our partners.
