The National Institute for Genealogical Studies provides web-based courses for both family historians and professional genealogists.
Genealogical research is a satisfying pastime for the family historian and a rewarding occupation for the professional genealogist. To support the needs of both amateur family historians and aspiring professional genealogists for reliable and comprehensive education we have designed a series of courses (Basic, Intermediate, Advanced and Electives) leading to various Certificates in Genealogical Studies with specialization in various countries.
Students should understand that the use of the term ‘professional’ is not narrowly related to those genealogists who offer research services for hire. The term professional is being used to describe professionalism in all aspects of genealogy. Professional genealogists must ensure the application of recognized standards to any and all endeavours.
