Hello,

I am taking the course in Social Media, and I had not heard about this site before. I am looking forward to learning more about it!

Tamara, I'd try emailing   admin@GenealogicalStudies.com   or calling   1-800-580-0165. They could connect you with the person who can help you start one. They've always been super helpful to me no matter the question. If you email it may take a day or so for them to reply depending on what event's going on in the genealogy world.

Hi, I'm Tamara Henschel and I'm just working on completing my advanced courses for the American certificate as well as my German certificate.  I started taking courses with NIGS in 2019 and will hopefully be finished with both certificates by spring of 2021.  Once I save up some money, I want to continue classes on my Professional certificate.  In addition to American genealogy research, I am planning on specializing in German research with a sub-specialty in the former Pommern region.  I am glad to meet all of you and enrich my knowledge with another group of people.  I wish there was a German records group on here as well!!!

Thanks Angela. Sounds great!

Jessica, ProGen is a program for genealogists to hone their work product by going through the book Professional Genealogy chapter by chapter and doing assignments. It's geared toward those who are interested in professional credentials (BCG, ICAPGen, etc), but can be taken by anybody seeking to produce professional-quality work. It involves a yearlong time commitment and group feedback. It was a great experience, but could be quite intense!

Hello Gaynol!  I know you will love browsing through them. The photos are amazing and reading all of the details about why they were arrested and their sentences really fascinates me. Many of them were just for petty larceny...likely just trying to survive. You can see the desperation in some of their eyes....

What is ProGen?

Wasn't aware. Thanks for telling me about them. Imagine the stories in those!
