Here
are some snippets from an email received by those who attended the recently
completed NGS Conference …
Thank you for attending
the NGS 2017 Family History Conference in Raleigh, North Carolina. We were
delighted to see you and hoped you enjoyed the conference as much as we did. In all, 2,450
people participated in the conference. We hope the conference enhanced
your research and analytical skills and provided you with more technological
tools. Most important, we hope the knowledge that you gained will help you as
you advance your research, analysis, and writing.
We especially want to
thank all the conference speakers. Their excellent presentations enabled NGS to
deliver an outstanding program…
You can still sign up for the on-demand
presentations of the ten lectures recorded via live streaming from http://www.PlaybackNGS.com. If you are interested or if you have a friend who missed
the conference, the on-demand recordings will be available for viewing through
13 August 2017. The package includes a full downloadable version of the
syllabus. The details and costs for the recordings are available at http://www.playbackngs.com/2017-raleigh-ngs-live-streaming-plus-3-months-access.
Audio recordings of more than 150 lectures
are also available. See http://www.playbackngs.com/7770-r for titles and prices.
A number of awards were
presented at the conference. Details about the 2017 awards and the recipients
