Certified Diamond Rings Have Pizzazz
We've all seen a cubic zirconium rings. They're...not exactly nice, but they do indeed have their own special charm. They look like diamonds, but not quite. And since they aren't diamonds, they lack something that all quality heavy weight diamonds have: a certificate of authenticity.
Indeed, certified diamond rings are the real deal and nothing will ever come quite as close. They're special. But why are there certified diamonds rings? Most other gems don't have certificates of authenticity...why should diamonds?
Well, first look at how hard it is to find diamonds. Wars have been started over these precious jewels. They're valuable and extremely beautiful. To newlyweds and even those who have been married for years, they are a symbol of eternity and everlasting love.
But again, they aren't easy to find, or at least, not as a finished product. Coal is everywhere, but it's only about the third step when it comes to diamond procuring. The first step is pretty much soil erosion. Diamonds are formed from carbon—so is the graphite found in your pencils. These are some of the only things on earth that actually are made primarily from carbon. Diamonds form under pressure and heat for thousands of years. It may take them even longer to make it to a level in which they can be mined. However, only a certain amount of diamonds are used in jewelry.
When a diamond is found, it isn't all pretty and shapely like you see in cartoons. Most of the time it needs a lot of polishing and shaping to make it suitable for jewelry. On the other hand, there are a few diamonds that just naturally happen to come out pretty and clear and need very little polishing.
There are also several different levels of clarity when it comes to diamonds. Some may be nearly see through (very very high clarity) and others may be yellow, which indicated lower clarity. But, there is a difference between yellow diamonds and diamonds with minimal clarity. There are yellow and blue and other colors of diamond. However, you can tell when you have a bad clarity when you look at the diamond; it will look cloudy, there will be scratches, bubbles, chips, or white or black spots.
It's because of this that most certified diamond rings come with certificates of authenticity. They show things about the diamond that a regular everyday person would not be able to see in comparison to a licensed jeweler who looks at diamonds and other gems and jewels for a living.
But having this certificate never hurts or harms. With certified diamond rings, you generally are presented with a document also stating their weight in carats, their clarity/inclusions, what shape they are cut into (round cut, rose cut, princess cut, cushion cut, etc), and other factors, like the cost of the diamond per carat in the case of larger diamonds. In the case that you happened to lose your ring or the diamond, you would be able to present a document identifying the diamond and you as the owner.

How can I becoming a Certified or Registered Nutritional/ Holistic Consultant or Practitioner?
For health reasons I have recently completely changed the way I eat. The more research I've done, the more interested I've become and would like to start a career in holistic health and nutrition. But where do I start? How can I choose a good, distance learning collage, and what do I look for in their curriculum? Because of budget and my remote location I need alternative learning options. What diplomas, degrees or certifications will be granted after educational requirements are met and what career opportunities will be open to me? Having a well rounded education is important to me. How can I make contacts with others in the same career?
I've decided to enter this field too.
I suggest you research schools around the area you live.
Try schoolfinder.com and search "holistic" "nutrition" etc under the "program" tab.
I know Canada has a few good schools but I'm not sure about the US.
You need an RHN or RNCP diploma in order to practice in the field. Make sure the school is accredited by the IONC.
A few accredited schools I know are the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, Alive Academy of Natural Health, Edison Institute of Nutrition and Clayton College of Natural Health.
All of them have the option of correspondence education.
The tuition is typically 1/2 to a full years tuition of a regular university/college program, and they last anywhere from 1 year to 4 years (you learn at your own pace).
Check the curriculum and make sure there is a solid background in Food and Nutrition and things like Anatomy and Physiology. You need a solid understanding of the body if you're going to be treating people.
Try to make sure the program does not concentrate too much on things like Flower therapies and Iridology etc. etc. Get your nutrition knowledge down first, and if you find that sort of thing interesting, there are separate courses available for a low cost everywhere (including community colleges).
The problem I see with Distance Education is that there are no Practicums. You need to get out of the classroom and get some hands on experience. I suggest finding a mentor you can see face to face, like a co-op thing.
Here is a site that lists schools specializing in Holistic Education that have the options of Online/Distance education.
