Special Value Audio Packages from #NGS2019GEN & #NGS2018GEN

NGS Offers Special Value Audio Packages

from its 2019 and 2018 Conferences

The National Genealogical Society (NGS) announces the availability of two special value audio packages from our 2019 and 2018 conferences featuring twelve sessions for the price of ten. Listen to a variety of topics in the field of genealogy spoken by nationally recognized speakers. These audio packages are an excellent option for those who were not able to attend the conferences in person.

Both packages—the 2019 NGS Family History Conference and the 2018 NGS Family History Conference—feature some of the most sought-after speakers and topics. Speakers include Blaine Bettinger, John Grenham, Thomas Wright Jones, Elizabeth Shown Mills, David E. Rencher, and Judy G. Russell. Topics focus on DNA’s role in genealogical research, documentation, ethnicity, immigration, methodology, problem-solving techniques, and more. A sampling of titles include “Advanced Research in Passenger Arrival Records,” “Proving Your Case: Using the Rules of Logical Argument,” “Starting Research in Irish Records,” and “Using Evidence Creatively: Spotting Clues in Run-of-the-Mill Records.”

Individual audio recordings can also be purchased for $14 each. Family historians can find details about the special value audio packages, individual audio recordings, and on-demand video from the PlaybackNGS website.

NGS Conference Recap + provide feedback on speakers & order lecture audio recordings ...

Though the Conference is over … you can still participate by providing speaker feedback (if you attended) or purchasing access to live-streamed lectures or audio recorded sessions!

If you attended the NGS 2016 Family History Conference in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, thanks for doing so. We were delighted to see you and hoped you enjoyed the conference as much as we did. In all, 1,915 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. If you have specific comments about a session, please provide feedback via the app or at http://app.core-apps.com/ngs2016 by going to the Events icon, locating your session, and tapping the clipboard icon on the side bar. Your comments help the Conference Committee plan and improve your next conference experience. Also, please take a few minutes to answer a brief survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NGS2016GEN. The closing date for both is 31 May 2016.

You can still sign up for the on-demand presentations of the ten lectures recorded via live streaming from Playback Now. If you are interested or if you have a friend who missed the conference, the on-demand recordings will be available for viewing through 7 August 2016. The package includes a full downloadable version of the syllabus. The details and costs for the recordings are available at http://www.playbackngs.com/livestream-ngs-2016-family-history-conference.
