Six students from the Percival Street Diamond Centre College have graduated and certified on May 26 this year.
The certification ceremony drew attraction from authorities and representatives from the National Council for Technical, Vocational and other Academic Awards (NCTVA).
Proprietor of the College, David Chris Nze said the ceremony has left him satisfied while noting the progress made by the students. Nze said all the students are now with knowledge related to diamond programmes and are now ready for the job market.
The proprietor affirmed that the new graduates can now understand the various classifications of diamonds and the ability to distinguish between fake and real diamonds.
Sierra Leone is one of the largest diamond producing nations in the world. Experts in the field have been sourced from neighbouring countries. With the number of local experts expected to rise in the coming years, it is believed that some students will be opportune to work for diamond and other mining companies.
