I havn't posted for awhle but I wanted to give un update on the recent family history conference I attended two weeks ago. It was held at BYU and was the ICAPGen Conference, "How to become and excellent genealogist." So I learned that you can become accredited in Italy research. Some of the main classes I attended were about how to become accredited so here is some info:
Preparation:
- You must have 1000 hours of research in the area of interest to apply for accreditation.
- You should extensively research a wide range of records in the area.
- You must have a 4 generation study with well documented records, and a research log showing what records were research and if anything was found or not.
- Have a report reflecting research experience and competence.
- Have compliled a refernce notebook with reference materials.
- Must be able to read all the documents in the languages of the country.
The test will include:
- paleagraphy
- document recognition
- a research case
- a pedigree analysis
- questions and answers
- An oral exam
Well there is alot of work to do to get ready. It shall be fun.... now to the FHL.
