[APG Public List] Is this college approved for certification

[Debbie Hooper]

Debbe,

I took the online course this past Winter/Spring (began in January).  It was absolutely fantastic!!

I don't know if the NGS, etc. actually approve courses or not, other than their own.  I DO know that I received a 10% discount for being a member of NGS.  I don't know if they still offer that or not.  

The instructors were excellent--some of the best you will ever find.  The cost was well worth every penny I paid.  It was a very intense course, and after "doing" genealogy for over 20 years I still learned SO much.  I am currently working as a professional, and my work just keeps getting better with each project.  I have applied everything I learned into my research, writing, reports, etc.

I compared a lot of courses.  As far as I am concerned, you will not find a course like this anywhere.  IGHR and SLIG are only offered at a specific time of the year, AND you have to travel.  The BU course can be done from the comfort of your sofa.  :-)

What other colleges or places can you take classes... I am curious about Heritage Genealogical College and http://genealogy.edu/moodle/

Which one has been approved by NGS, FGS,ICAPGEN or BC....

I would hate to see someone take classes and then find out it is not valid course... 

I am familiar with http://www4.samford.edu/schools/ighr/ and BYU.
