Upcoming BYU Family History Conference

(From FamilySearch)

As a part of our regular e-mail communications, from time to time we notify you of family history conferences or other training opportunities in your area. We would like to make you aware of the annual Family History Conference at Brigham Young University, which is sponsored by the International Commission for the Accreditation of Professional Genealogists (ICAPGen) and the Center for Family History and Genealogy. The conference will be held at BYU on November 6–7, 2009. ICAPGen is the organization that provides accreditation for the genealogists who work at the Family History Library. They have a wealth of knowledge about genealogical research worldwide.



The mission of this conference is to help individuals become excellent genealogists. A class schedule and registration form are attached. Early registration ends October 30, after which the registration fee will increase. If you want to attend, please print and send in the attached registration form, or download a registration form at http://www.icapgen.org/Programs/conference.htm.



We anticipate that this conference will be a great event. If you have questions about the conference, please direct them to Tristan Tolman, ICAPGen Public Relations, by e-mail at tristantolman@comcast.net or by phone at 1-801-380-5924.



Sincerely,

FamilySearch

Finally! The Roll-Out!!!

I just checked my email this morning (because I was able to go into work early) and what to my surprise do I have? An email from headquarters saying we're going to roll-out on Monday the 12th!!! Ta-daaaa!!!

Ok, so now we can all use it. I can help anyone who asks. I can answer questions, I can train classes, I can speak from a pulpit. I'm ready.

If you have any questions, please ask. If you have any comments, please comment. I'm a resource for the stake. I'm ready.
