Content Leader Submission Form

The American Gem Society (AGS) is calling on prominent professionals and thought leaders in the jewelry industry to present content of interest to the AGS community. Content leaders can address a variety of topics for varying educational levels (i.e. beginner, intermediate, advanced) through live and on-demand webinars, articles, and more. As an AGS content leader, you will reach your target audience, as well as a cross-section of professionals most likely to benefit from your expertise and services. If you are looking to build your network and expand your brand message through compelling content, becoming an AGS content leader can help you achieve your goals.

Submission Opportunities:

• AGS PRO: Pre-recorded webinars, articles, white papers, and videos can be submitted throughout the year for consideration to be featured in AGS PRO.
• Webinars: Live webinars are hosted monthly as well as uploaded to AGS PRO. Whether it’s a panel or presented solely by you, webinars are an important component of our educational mix.
• Conclave: Submit a Request for Proposal (RFP) to present at the American Gem Society’s annual Conclave. This is your chance to be part of the premier education event in the jewelry industry!

• Recertification Exam: Submit articles for consideration to be featured in the AGS Recertification Exam, which AGS titleholders and designees complete annually.
