The Board for Certification of Genealogists promotes public confidence in genealogy by supporting uniform standards of competence. These webinars are part of our effort to provide educational opportunities to family historians of all levels of experience.”
BCG’s webinars are normally held on the third Tuesday of each month at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time. Yvette Hoitink’s July 16 webinar, however, will be broadcast at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time.
