Registration

When can I register?

Registration is now open. Registration will close on Saturday, September 21, 2019, at 11:59 p.m.

Can I register for only one day of the Virtual Conference?

Yes, we offer three registration options:

  • Option 1: DNA Tuesday
  • Option 2: Virtual Wednesday
  • Option 3: Combined DNA Tuesday & Virtual Wednesday

The best value for your education dollar is realized with Option 3. So take the risk to stretch and grow while learning from some of the best and most engaging instructors in the fields of DNA and genealogy, and genealogical and historical research methodology!

Syllabus and Recordings

When will I receive my syllabus?

Links to syllabus material will be sent out on the Monday prior to the conference to all registered participants who are paid in full. You are authorized to download and save, but not share the material.

My car had a flat tire and I missed the live broadcast! Now what?

One of the benefits of this virtual conference is unlimited access to the recorded presentations until October 26, 2019--that is a full 30 days to listen again and solidify new concepts.

How soon will the recordings be available to access?

Recordings will be available within 3 days following the end of the conference. You will be able to access them as desired through October 26, 2019.
